Local helping opportunity

The Holiday Hamper Program is a yearly program organized by Access Alliance Multicultural Health and Community Services (Barrington site), for low income and new Canadian families. This program helps families to have a memorable holiday, with good nutritious meals, gifts and other items so that they can truly enjoy the holiday season as a family.

You can adopt a family to buy for or make cash or in-kind donations.

For more info contact: Keisha Cooke at kcooke@accessalliance.ca or 416-698-1626, ext. 204

Last year, the Holiday Hamper Program assisted 105 families, thanks to the generosity of donors and volunteers. These contributions help to support 190 children and 144 adults. Can you help this year?

Act Now! Final Danforth Garage Master Plan Community Meeting

CreateTO and City of Toronto are holding the final community meeting to present the Master Plan for the Danforth Garage Site on Thursday, December 13, 2018 at Monarch Park Collegiate (1 Hanson Street) from 6-9pm.

The final meeting for the Master Plan for the Danforth Garage Site will illustrate the selected locations for the 3 anchor tenants: the TTC, the Police and the Toronto Public Library. It will determine access through the site, locations for public spaces and areas for new construction.

To make your voice heard and contribute to the discussion, head over to the meeting to participate!

This development, if done well, has the potential to bring vibrancy to the Danforth, provide the community with well designed public spaces and accommodate much needed community amenities.

Hope to see you there!
