In October 2017, Forever Inked Tattoos in Surrey held a flash event and raffle in support of Parkinson Society British Columbia's programs, services, advocacy efforts and research contributions. Thanks to the generosity of the staff at Forever Inked Tattoos, as well as a number of organizations and businesses who donated to the raffle, this event raised a total of $4,368!

Tattoo artist Jason Hopes explains why the business gives back to the community, "Last year, we raised $4,500 for BC Children's Hospital...We want to break free of some of the stigma tattoo parlours have. We want to break that misperception and show that we are a family."
