Turn on your television to Shaw TV’s Express. Erin Shaw’s story of Beauty Night Society’s makeover program airs tomorrow at 6pm on channel 4.
Tonight one of The Vancouver Sun photographers will be capturing the womyns gym participants warm up. Sport Med BC’s walk/run coach Lynn Kanuka will be leading the warm up. Program Coordinators Tyla Flexman and Felicity Scott have been using Kanuka’s Sport Med BC’s web coaching to prepare for the Sun Run on May 9th. As we count down the days, we are thrilled to be acquiring more knowledge about the walk/run process.
Thank You!
Huge thanks to all of our volunteers and contributors. Without your contributions, we would not be able to reach so many women and children in a positive way.

Beauty Night Toronto
Tonight Saafi Warsame and our Toronto volunteers hold our last Beauty Night in Toronto. Beauty Night Society launched December 9th, 2002. In the last 8 years, Beauty Night has held over 80 makeover nights. Tonight’s event will be held at Yorktown Shelter in Etobicoke. “I want to thank all the volunteers and contributors that kept Toronto going during the past 8 years,” said Beauty Night Founder and National Executive Director, Caroline MacGillivray.”Thanks to your perseverance and contributions, we have made a huge impact on the lives of many.” Hopefully Beauty Night Society will be back in Toronto after 2012.
“During our strategic planning session, we decided to focus on creating a template for rural areas and cities. This way we will be able to reach more women and children once we have a sustainable structure in place,” says MacGillivray.
