Lions Den Capital does not independently lend, service, or administer mortgage loans

Why "Lions Den"?

The name "Lions Den" is a tribute to my mother, Shelley Loewer, an inspiring entrepreneur and beloved mother of seven children, five of which are boys.

To support their growing family, Shelley took on various "side hustles," from raising chickens and cultivating an expansive garden to buying truckloads of BC fruit and selling them by the case from the garage of their acreage just outside Saskatoon. Her creativity shone through in her artistic mountain landscape paintings and her passion for writing.

When Shelley and her sister Melody were tasked with organizing a large family reunion, they found no helpful resources at the library. Instead of giving up, they decided to share their knowledge by writing their own book, "Fun Family Reunions in 8 Easy Steps!" After completing the book, Shelley faced numerous rejections from publishers. Undeterred, she founded her own publishing company, aptly named “Lions Den Publishing.”

Shelley’s entrepreneurial spirit, resilience, and dedication left a lasting impact on each of us. Even after her passing in 2004 following a courageous battle with cancer, her legacy continues to inspire. In honor of her example of hard work, integrity and determination, we proudly named our company Lions Den Capital.
