The Club

The Club is a free program that focuses on empowering female-identifying and non-binary young adults to build supportive relationships and essential connections.

At The Club, you’ll be able to build supportive, empowering relationships with other young people who get it. This program is open to female-identifying and non-binary youth (including genderqueer, gender-diverse, and self-identified young women) in B.C. affected by childhood cancer or blood disorders, either through their own diagnosis or a sibling's diagnosis.

The Club

Who?

The Club is for young adults who are:

  • Between the ages of 18-30
  • Female-identifying and non-binary (including genderqueer, gender-diverse, and self-identified young women)
  • Living in B.C.
  • Living with/beyond cancer or blood disorders OR a sibling affected by childhood cancer or blood disorders

 

What?

The Club is a yearly program that runs from September - June.

Members meet twice per month online to socialize and connect over shared interests, activities, and everyday life. All sessions are co-produced with participants. The Club members run the club, we just help facilitate!

 

Where?

Monthly sessions take place on Zoom, with an active member led whatsapp chat for connection outside of sessions.

The online sessions lead up to an in person retreat that takes place over a weekend in May. Participants are supported to travel across the province for a weekend of connection, relaxation and fun! There is no cost to attend, thanks to our generous donors we are able to cover travel, accommodation and food.

 

How?

We are now accepting new members of The Club! Applications are open until September 7th. Click the button below to access The Club Registration for 2026/27.

Why The Club
The Club
Why The Club?

It’s a time to just exist with folks who know what you’ve gone through. You can talk about it if that’s what you need, but there is no pressure. We all just know.

The WCK group is a fabulous group of individuals that genuinely is making a huge difference in the lives of cancer survivors. The atmosphere, inclusivity, and overall thoughtfulness for all of us remind us how important it is to be with those who we share such a big part of ourselves with. I love that WCK has made such a big impact on this community.

This program has made me feel empowered to make changes in my life. I have experienced kindness and empathy that I’ve never seen anywhere else.

Loved it. Everyone is so nice and made me feel comfortable despite feeling nervous beforehand and I had a lot of fun.
