Overview

Forever 41. Here’s our story.

On 23 Feb of this year, Patricia Dawn found life had become untenable and chose to make her exit from this world. She was only 41. Patricia lived her life fully, authentically, with a wide open mind and deep curiosity. It was her passion to help people in any way she could, and that passion drove her into the field of nursing. She spent the majority of her career in the trenches of the Downtown East Side in Vancouver as a nurse at InSite, as well as working on other connected projects.

It has become my passion to make a difference, to honour the spirit of my sister, and continue on the work she did. I do not inhabit the world Patricia did, but I can make a difference in the world I am in. It is with that purpose in mind that my siblings and I have created Forever 41.

We have partnered with the Calgary Distress Centre as our charity-of-choice. Their mission, vision, and values align with ours. All proceeds raised will go directly to them.
