The Efry team and interested clients will volunteer together every month at food banks and other charitable organizations.

Every month Efry will celebrate and gift an honorarium to a client who we recognize is showing care to themselves and dedication to their healing journey.

We will provide community outreach services every week, making meaningful connections with community members and linking them to a continuum of support. We will also offer food, clothing, hygiene items, bus tickets, harm reduction supplies, etc.

Connect with one new non-profit organization in my community that I have yet to learn about and see how I can support it.

Emily

I pledge to increase my charitable giving to local organizations that are helping to improve the quality of life for the residents of Thunder Bay

I pledge to involve my young daughter in more social events in support of community, in the hopes that she will value philanthropy just as her parents do.

I pledge one random act of kindness per month to be performed by our family – whether it is buying a coffee for the person behind us in the drive thru, giving food to those begging for help on the streets or donating household items & clothing to immigrants who have recently arrived in our city.
