Home Away From Home
Home Away From Home

Honour House is a refuge, a “home away from home” for members of our Canadian Armed Forces, Veterans, Emergency Services Personnel and their families to stay, completely free of charge, while they are receiving medical care and treatment in the Metro Vancouver area.

These brave individuals, along with their families, sacrifice so much on a daily basis to protect our freedom and our everyday way of life. Honour House allows us the opportunity to show them that we care and how much we appreciate all that they do for us.

Based right here in New Westminster, they partner with local charities to team up for volunteering days and donate unwanted products that can't be sold or shipped. These products go a very long way here at Honour House and can save us thousands of dollars per year in basic essentials. Please join us in giving them a huge thank you for all their support. ...

Honour House Society
Two years ago we launched the Tour of Honour. Our hope was to reach every member of the military and first responder in the province. This work continues everyday. We still feel the positive effects of the tour everyday. We currently have guests staying at Honour House who came into contact through the tour. The three month adventure would not have been possible without the incredible contributions of sponsors and volunteers. We can't wait to hit the road again soon! Got a memory or story from the tour? Drop it in the comments! 👇 ... See MoreSee Less
