Supporting community initiatives

In 2024, the City of Chilliwack allocated its share of provincial gambling revenue to support several local initiatives. Funds were directed toward Chilliwack Community Services programs, including Youth Outreach, Social Development, and Community Crime Prevention efforts. Additionally, a portion of the revenue was invested in road rehabilitation projects to maintain and improve local infrastructure.

Community crime prevention initiatives and infrastructure rehabilitation projects also benefited from this financial injection, enabling the city to improve and maintain critical infrastructure, including roads, public buildings, and recreational facilities. These projects not only enhance the quality of life for residents but also ensure that Chilliwack remains a vibrant and well-maintained community for years to come.
