"I would like to take this moment to send a big “thank you” for the support from the BC Rehab Foundation. As a social worker who has specialized in rehabilitation for 25 years, I have had many experiences with the Foundation. Over the years and right up to now I have found that each request has been met with kindness, understanding and often also with enthusiasm. I have been able to take a reasonable request to the BC Rehab Foundation and have known that the application, on behalf of those with whom I work, will be treated with respect and careful consideration. The BC Rehab Foundation has been there for many of my clients and groups over the years. It has been wonderful to know that there is help from an organization that understands so well the issues faced by people who have disabilities."
