My name is Ron Bergen and I am an Accessibility & Inclusion Advocate, personally dealing with a vision-loss disability and mobility challenges. I have recently created the Ron Cares Society, which is a non-profit company that creates and distributes Personal Care Hygiene Kits for local people in need, including those experiencing homelessness, seniors, First Nations, refugees and low-income families. I strive to be an active community member and have served 6 years (2016-2021) on Translink’s Access Transit User Advisory Committee. Plus, I am an Executive Member At Large of Langley Senior’s In Action Society, serving on the Transportation Working Group, and I volunteer with Langley Senior Resources Society. I also served 6+ years on Surrey City’s Measuring Up Committee for Accessibility and Inclusion, before I moved to Langley. I have a strong belief in the power of collaboration towards addressing community issues. My aim is to encourage residents, business owners, and faith communities in the donation of products and distribution support for these much-needed Community Care Kits. The Ron Cares Society supports Health & Wellness one Care Kit at a time!
