The History of Sunbeam - The Vos Founders

Since its beginnings on November 9, 1956 when Pieter and Johanna Vos first welcomed a child with a developmental disability into their family home, through its establishment as a not-for-profit organization in 1976, and to the Sunbeam of today, a robust and diverse community developmental services organization supporting over 14,000 individuals and families across Waterloo, Wellington, Dufferin, Halton and Peel, Sunbeam has always remained true to its roots.
