Have you always wanted to volunteer in the neighbourhood, but not known where to start?
Mark next Thursday August 27 on your calendar. DECA is hosting it’s first “Community Connections” fair – at the top of the farmers’ market in East Lynn Park, between 3 and 7 pm.
There, you can meet TEN local groups and service providers who will tell you what they do and why, and – most importantly – how you can get involved.
Have you always wanted to help out at a women’s shelter or the hospital? How about deliver hot meals to senior’s doors, so they don’t have to brave the winter weather? Maybe you just want to get on your kids’ school’s parent council. In all cases — this is your chance!
This is the first project of our newly formed DECA Connects committee. We are a small group of neighbours who want to use DECA’s impressive talents, connections and energies, to address social needs in our community.
Would you like to join us? Please email Elizabeth Dove at edove9@gmail.com for details regarding our next meeting!
