How our partners help​

As a volunteer, community-driven fundraising initiative, LT Housing Support relies on key people and organizations to achieve its mission of closing the funding gap.

BC Lung Transplant Program's dedicated social workers identify patients and caregivers in need.
Requests for LT Housing Support funding are channeled through the patient's Transplant Program Social Worker.  They work in partnership with the BC Lung Foundation (BC Lung) and LT Housing Support.  Note: Care is taken to keep patient information confidential.

A registered charity, BC Lung provides the necessary accounting, administrative and communications support free-of-charge. This partnership enables LT Housing Support to re-distribute 100% of all donations directly to patients and caregivers in need.  Located across from  the VGH Diamond Centre, BC Lung also provides free parking to patients and caregivers for hospital visits.
