I spoke with Caroline MacGillivray, founder of Beauty Night Society, on why she created a non-profit that improves the lives sex workers and low income women through makeover. The story ran this week in WE Vancouver:
Beauty Night Society touches the lives of thousands of women on the DTES
Ask Caroline MacGillivray why she started Beauty Night Society, and she’ll tell you stories.
There was the time she was volunteering at a drop-in centre on the Downtown Eastside and a woman asked her what it was like to be a kid. The woman’s father had started raping her when she was four. At age six, he started selling her, and by 10 she was in foster homes.
