France will show us how creative art explorations can be an amazing process for discovering ourselves and our gifts Register here: https://biayr-educational-talks-standing-by-my-side.eventbr

Today on World Cancer Day, we come together to raise awareness and to honour and remember everyone affected by cancer. Because together, we’re a community. Conn...ected, even when we’re apart. Together, we’re bigger than cancer. Each of us doing all that we can to make a difference. And as the pandemic continues, this means even more. Because people living with cancer are at higher risk for more serious outcomes of COVID-19, we know that everything we do to protect ourselves and others is also protecting people with cancer. Together, we can continue supporting Canadians affected by cancer now, and all year-round. Join us in sharing this message and see how we’re stronger TOGETHER: http://bit.ly/2O4PxWQ

The Mosaic Interfaith Out of the Cold Program provides safe refuge, warm hospitality and emergency shelter in York Region to the homeless or those in need of food/clothing. Overnight shelters are operated by various interfaith communities on different nights of the week from November to March. Despite popular belief, homelessness can affect anyone regardless of age, ethnicity or status. It is not just a problem affecting drug users or alcoholics but anyone can face poverty an...d homelessness during difficult financial hardships. The Mosaic Interfaith Out of the Cold Program aims to help individuals who have lost their homes or are at risk of losing their homes by providing emergency shelter, clothing, meals, shower facilities, medical care, or just a compassionate ear. Out of the Cold has improved the lives of many who find themselves on the street during difficult times. An Out of the Cold guest once told one of the volunteers, "I feel like I'm with family when I come here". https://www.miotc.ca/
