The Powell Street Getaway (formerly “Living Room Drop-In Centre”), a mental health and substance abuse community resource centre, provides a safe space, peer-lead programmes, meals, activities and support for nearly 200 homeless and under-privileged people. For the last 19 years, volunteers from the Sathya Sai Center of Coquitlam have served fresh vegetarian meals four times a year at the facility. On 27th October 2018, nine ladies served a hearty meal of creamy broccoli and pasta soup, sweet potato and cauliflower hash, garlic bread, and apple cobbler crumble, topped off with vanilla ice cream for dessert, to more than 200 residents at the Getaway. The residents relished the delicious meal that was lovingly served while the volunteer ladies were grateful for the opportunity to serve.
