‘Welcome to Eastvan’ has been a fixture in the DTES community since 2006. Rob Geary and Luis Galvan founded the brand to help inspire the community to embrace, develop and evolve its identity. The boys live and work in the DTES and are surrounded by folks that need assistance, particularly around the holidays. Rob and Luis wanted to do something big to help the community this year and decided to give as much as they could to the Vancouver Food Bank.
SO … they’re doing what anyone would do … living in their cube moving truck until the good people of Vancouver fill it with non-perishable food. They’ll set up shop on December 12 and they won’t go home until the VAN IS FULL!
