We have some incredible news… and we need your help.
Whistler Community Services Society has been selected as one of five finalists across North America in the Community Services category of the Land Rover Defender Service Awards. If we win, WCSS will receive a brand-new Land Rover Defender to support our Outreach Services and the thousands of people we serve each year.
But we can’t win without you.
Vote for WCSS now! Help us win a new Outreach car.
Why This Matters
Until now, our Outreach team has relied on a generously donated vehicle to deliver essential services throughout the Sea to Sky corridor. That vehicle has been an incredible gift to our organization, helping us transport food, supplies, and clients wherever they were needed. We are deeply grateful to the donor whose generosity has helped our community for so many years.
At 20 years old and after a lot of hard work, this car is reaching the end of its time with us. It’s time for the next chapter.
Winning this Land Rover Defender would allow us to safely and reliably:
- Deliver more food and supplies from our Food Bank to people in the community.
- Bring food to local schools through our School Food Program without relying on our volunteers’ personal vehicles.
- Transport clients to medical appointments throughout the Sea to Sky corridor.
- Deliver food and essential supplies to our rural northern communities.
- Navigate challenging winter road conditions with greater confidence and safety.
This isn’t just about replacing a vehicle; it’s about expanding our ability to support people when they need us most.

Thank You
A special thank you to Ryan Regehr for creating our incredible campaign video, James Fougere of Whistler Bear Tours for generously lending his Defender for filming, and our wonderful staff and volunteer actors who helped bring our story to life.
