The VASE creates small micro-businesses to generate revenue for community based early childhood education and literacy programming while creating much needed employment and skills development in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside

You can be a part of the solution. Please choose one of our micro-businesses.

1. When you purchase a 'Literacy Light' from any of our community partners you are helping to 'Shine A Light on Literacy' and together we can begin the process of 'ending the cycle of illiteracy and poverty' through community economic development.

2. Place a preorder of our first First Nations Reader: A is for Aboriginal.

3. Digital Technology & Education Society - a new acronym for the Downtown Eastside - Talented, award-winning New Media professionals buddy-up with students in a digital apprenticeship program to build advanced media solutions - including: websites, community portals, sales & marketing presentations and product demos. Please contact us for a free consultation.

4. Coming Soon: A socially proactive 'Virtual Travel Agency.' Thinking of going on a cruise? Take advantage of the enormous buying power of one of the largest American Express Travel Affiliates and contribute to literacy and early childhood development programming in the Downtown Eastside. Please contact us for more information.

5. Aboriginal Art Shows - Vancouver has many talented Aboriginal artists. This spring we are launching a new program to hold mini-art shows in the downtown area. Would your company like to host a mini-art show? Please contact us for more information.

Our mandate is to 'Keep Profits in the Community' and our goal is to raise over one million dollars by the end of 2009 and directly fund our own and other community based ECD and literacy programs.
