Community Champions Relaunch
The Edmonton Federation of Community Leagues (EFCL) is bringing back their monthly Community Champions meetings! These gatherings are designed to build stronger bonds across our city by sharing innovative ideas and brainstorming solutions to local challenges.
The next meeting takes place on Thursday, October 9th, from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM at the West Jasper Sherwood Community League (9620 152 Street NW).
You can find more details and register for the October session here. If you have questions, feel free to reach out to Melissa Campbell at melissa.campbell@efcl.org.
Before you attend, the EFCL invites you to think about:
If you had unlimited resources, what is one thing you would do to increase the sense of belonging in your neighborhood?
Who else in your community is a "Champion" that might want to join the conversation?
Problem Property Initiative
Our neighborhood is currently a focus area for the City of Edmonton’s Problem Property Initiative (PPI). This program works to address private properties that negatively impact the safety or well-being of the surrounding community. Whether it's securing unsafe buildings or upholding housing standards, the PPI teams are working to improve our streets. To learn how to identify or report a problem property, view the PPI One Pager here.
Dinner and Speaker Series: Personal Finances
Join us for an informative session focused on financial wellness. Whether you are looking to sharpen your budgeting skills or plan for the future, this workshop is a great place to start.
