Calendar

A big thank you to everyone for buying a 2010 Hope in Shadow calendar! We are really happy to announce that street vendors sold 20% more calendars than last year (12,000 up from 10,000).

The 2010 photography contest for Downtown Eastside residents ran from June 1 to June 4. Community judging will be happening in late June and early July. Winning images from the contest will feature in the 2011 calendar due for release in early October. 

Find a street vendor

Most Hope in Shadows calendars are sold by homeless and low-income vendors who earn $10 from every $20 calendar sold. When buying from a street vendor the price is $20 including the HST. Calendars will be on the streets from October 5, 2010. Visit the find a vendor section for more info.

Visit a retail outlet

The Hope in Shadows calendar is also available at retail outlets. Many of the participating retailers have sold the calendar since the project began in 2003. In the early years, retail sales outnumbered sales through street vendors. That's shifted as awareness of Hope in Shadows and the vendor program grow. But we're still grateful for all the retailers (past and present) who've helped ensure the success of the project. The retail price for the 2011 Hope in Shadows calendar will be $20 plus HST. Visit the find a retailer section to locate a store where you can purchase the calendar.
