Burnaby Meals on Wheels offers three services: The HOME MEAL DELIVERY program provides nutritious, hot and frozen, home-delivered meals to people who, for the reason of age, illness, or disability are unable to prepare meals for themselves. This program benefits clients by providing: • Balanced Chinese, Western and vegetarian meals each containing protein, starch and vegetables. • A friendly visitor and informal security check. • Maintaining independence in their home. • Not having to worry about meal preparation after a hospital stay—meals can be available for short term post-hospital stay. Currently, Burnaby Meals on Wheels is implementing two new services: (1) supporting Progressive Housing's HOMELESSNESS OUTREACH programs with fresh milk, eggs and fruit; and (2) a co-operative local fruits & vegetables purchasing program called the BURNABY HARVEST BOX.

Because democracies rely upon a well-educated citizenry, CCLET’s mission is to engage Canadians in developing the habits they need to participate in the democratic process. Among the outreach programmes of the Canadian Civil Liberties Trust are Civil Liberties in the Schools and Teaching Civil Liberties. These programs focus on getting students to ask critical questions about their rights and freedoms. By shining the light of inquiry on unfairness, we begin the process of change. Through CCLET guest speakers, conferences, and workshops for schools and community organizations, participants are engaged in lively discussions about their rights and freedoms and the important legal and civil liberties issues created by a pluralistic society. Particular emphasis is on providing programmes for student teachers, and high school law and social studies students.
