Burn Fund Centre
Located in the heart of Vancouver
Burn and trauma survivors, fire fighters and their families stay at the Burn Fund Centre when they must travel to Vancouver for medical treatment.
With eight short-term suites, a communal kitchen, a living area and a patio, this beautiful space in the heart of Main Street allows guests to focus on recovery and connecting with others rather than the logistics of their stay.

Every guest has a portion of their stay covered by generous donors of the Burn Fund. Guests are asked to contribute $25 per night for their stay, but the true cost is subsidized and is closer to $100 per night. Bookings are based on availability.
