Remember when our Cooking for Change campaign was Remember when our Cooking for Change campaign was featured on the CBC? Similarly to Food Baskets for Seniors, the aim was to provide healthy food for seniors in Regent Park. (Check out the video through the link in our bio.) 

Our Cooking for Change campaign reached its fundraising goal, and we are looking to do the same with Food Baskets for Seniors. Food banks everywhere have said they are stretched way past their limits due to the overwhelming food insecurity crisis, and we want to make sure the seniors in our community are taken care of with our Food Basket for Seniors campaign. 

Food Baskets for Seniors campaign will provide a sustainable source of food for vulnerable Regent Park seniors through contactless delivery of healthy food baskets weekly. The campaign’s impact depends entirely on how much money we can raise! 

To support, donate, and learn more, please find the official fundraiser link in our bio.

COVID-19 ALERT

Dear Friends,

CL&D has been following the development of the COVID-19 outbreak.  In an effort to promote physical distancing and safeguard the health and wellbeing of our clients, staff, and community in general, the following has been decided:

  1.  All Learning Centre programs and services are being delivered virtually. In-person activities are postponed until further notice, with the exception of sewing classes that are taking place in person, in strict adherence to Public Health guidelines.
  2. We will continue to provide intake and respond to new inquiries.  Intake appointments and assessments will be conducted over the telephone and online.

For questions regarding programming, you can contact:

  • Regent Park Catering Collective: Allison Gibson, allison@tccld.org
  • Regent Park Sewing Studio: Shahrzad Sadeghi, shahrzad@tccld.org
  • Clear Language & Design: Sally McBeth: sally@tccld.org
  • Immigrant Women Integration Program & Academic Upgrading: Camila Geo, camila@tccld.org
  • General inquiries: info@tccld.org or 647-493-2462

 

As the situation surrounding COVID-19 is rapidly changing, we will alter our approach as required, taking into account advice from public health authorities and based on the best evidence available.

Hopefully, everyone will weather this health emergency and stay well.  Please take care of yourself and your loved ones.

 

Regards,

Alfred Jean-Baptiste
Executive Director
