Save the Date: Thursday, March 21st at 6pm, Room 5 at GNH

If you're interested in becoming a garden volunteer and joining the Urban Farming Club, there will be a meeting on March 21st. Information will be provided on how the Urban Farm and Herb Box programs work and how you can get involved.

Money Skills Workshop

April 6th and 13th from 12:30-3:30pm at GNH

This free workshop, presented by Family Services of Greater Vancouver, will discuss budgeting, banking, credit, and basic investment options. It will help participants increase their knowledge and confidence in the tasks of daily money management and improve their relationship with money.

Conversation Classes

Are you able to teach English, French or Spanish?

We have received many requests from the community for English, French, and Spanish classes, so we are looking for volunteers who want to share their language skills with others.

If you are interested or if you have ideas for other language classes that we can offer, please contact Aileen at aileen@gordonhouse.org
