More than 50 volunteers will be walking the streets of NDG to bring you a smile, but more importantly, free hot chocolate and resources. Come find them - you can't miss them with their yellow vests, on which the NDG Community Council logo will be displayed

Between December 21st and January 1st, Community Connectors and volunteers will facilitate virtual workshops on Zoom to celebrate together. Artistic activities, parties, a New Year's Eve get-together for singles, mini-concerts, and many other surprises will be on display

The Community Council, in support of our local businesses, will purchase hot meals from local restaurants and have them delivered to 600 of our residents by smiling volunteers. What could be better?

Bring a smile along with food to isolated NDG residents!
Support both residents and local businesses! 
Our December Together project is aiming at putting a smile on isolated residents' faces during the 2020 holidays. With the difficult last 9 months, the struggle is real and isolation will be at a peak during that period of the year. Both our residents and local businesses need our support during the Holiday season this year!
Donating for December Together allows us to encourage local businesses while supporting our isolated residents.
Thank you for your support!

The community partnership on which this program is based is a must. Many NDG partners and residents have contributed, either through financial donations, volunteer time, or the creation of virtual activities. We would like to extend a special thank you to the Depot for their donation of hundreds of frozen meals. A complete list of contributors will be available on the Council's website and our social media.
