Lynn and Coco’s Café have become a pillar of the Jasper community, welcoming everyone who walks through the café door, so it was no surprise to many locals when they were nominated for our Feel Good Movement. Part of the Jasper main street since 1994, the small but cozy café loves being involved in community most notably Jasper Pride, as owner Lynn sits on the board. She also helps locals by providing meals to those in need, which many have relied on especially during COVID...-19. Whether it’s supporting school groups such as the hockey team, gymnastics club, or bike events, Coco’s is constantly giving back to the community. A caregiver at heart, Lynn always puts others before herself, making sure her family and staff are taken care of first and that sense of care can be felt in the delicious goodies they make, seven days a week! Coco's Café was also recently awarded Jasper's Corporate Citizen of the Year - a big congrats to Lynn and her team. See more

Capturing the human experience in its most honest and raw form takes a particular person. In Edmonton, that is Jerry Cordeiro - one of our latest Feel Good Movement recipients. A compassionate person who spends much of his time in the inner city, getting to know strangers and listening to who they are; eventually telling their story in both written and photo form. He also gathers items for care packages and delivers them to those who need it most. Because of his connection to... the community, Jerry also helps individuals find homes and has connected family members who have been searching for each other. His primary job is that of a photographer and over the past few months it has been hard but he has continued to tell his stories through his project, The Humans Experience. The photos below are of Jerry in his element behind the camera, receiving his gift at one of our branches, and one of the people he has interviewed through 'The Humans Experience'.

Your coffee cup might not be the only thing that ends up emptied when using public WiFi! When banking online, it's safest to access your account on a computer or through an app using a secure WiFi signal like a home one or your data. If you're using the local coffee shop internet while doing your banking, someone could access your information since you're sharing the same signal. Make sure you have a secure password too! The more different numbers and letters, the harder it will be to crack!

There's something soothing about a warm beverage on a chilly day and The Meeting Place in Bashaw is just the place to get one. A Feel Good Movement recipient, the café churns out baked goods and warm beverages a-plenty while still giving back to the community. Owner Stacy Trombley wanted to create a space where people could feel welcomed, enjoy their surroundings, and relax - she has done all of that and more. As a small business, Stacy supports other local shops as much as possible from deli meats for sandwiches to veggies from a local garden. When it came time to re-open, she asked her customers what they wanted so as to not waste food and make sure they felt comfortable. With the coffee hot again and fresh doughnuts ready to eat, if you find yourself in Bashaw make sure to pop by for a visit!

No one likes getting spam emails but opening or replying to them is one way that your device and information can become compromised. Here are some tips to recognizing fraudulent emails: 1. Look at the email address. Many spam emails don't match the person or company that they are coming from. 2. Look for typos in the body of the email. Some will be obvious, some you'll have to look for a bit more closely. ... 3. Anyone asking for gift cards as a payment or saying that there is a large sum of money waiting for you. If anyone asks for your SIN, banking information, or passwords via email, don't send it! 4. Don't open attachments or links from senders that you don't recognize it. If you're not expecting it, don't open it. 5. If you're unsure if it's fake or not, reach out to the business or person using contact details that you are confident about in a new email. Don’t use the contact information on the email or reply to the message.
