On March 24, 2020 the RDN approved our Development Permit application, bringing us one big step closer to putting shovels in the ground to begin construction on Lighthouse Villa. We are now working on finalizing our lease, preparing documents to go to tender, putting the finishing touches on our drawings, and collaborating with BC Housing

At the January meeting of 100+Women Who Care Oceanside, Bowser Seniors Housing Society was chosen as the charity for January by the members in attendance. As a result we will be receiving a cheque in the amount of $26,000.

We are thrilled and will let you know when the official cheque presentation will be.

A huge thank you to our members and friends who nominated Bowser Seniors Housing Society and to Renata Sutherland for making the presentation on our behalf.
