5th anniversary draws a committed crowd

110 friends and supporters of Resource Works gathered on March 14, 2019 at Vancouver’s Terminal City Club to help us celebrate our first five years of service.

It was a time for recognition, networking, and growing our knowledge about how to build responsible prosperity at a time when natural resources are more important than ever. Photos by Richard Lam for Resource Works.

Dr. ‘Lyn Anglin, founding Advisory Council Chair of Resource Works, was honoured at the Terminal City Club in Vancouver for her early efforts on behalf of the non-profit advocacy group. The Resource Works Society was launched in April 2014 to communicate with British Columbians about the importance of the province’s resource sectors to their personal well-being. Left to right: Resource Works executive director Stewart Muir, Dr. Anglin, Resource Works Board Chair John Turner.
