Canadians are in crisis. Your funds will be used to create the HoursBank crisis-response social-care website. Connecting those in need with those willing to help.
One person has a lawnmower. Another has a truck. Alone, they are unemployed. Together, they have a lawn and garden business. Can they connect on the government Job Bank? No. On social media? No. Through job-creation and entrepreneurship centers? No. We understand this as business and government policy to separate and isolate people for control and profit. But in isolation, how can we create new green jobs? Seniors need help around the house. They cannot afford to hire someone. So they end up alone, struggling in social isolation. Surely we can find a way to connect those needing help with those willing to help. It’s not about money. It’s about care. Connecting people by care is essential social security across the generations. Here’s how it works. Youth support seniors now. Later in life, they get the help they need. Volunteers bank their hours. That’s how it works. We help each other. What happens if you help a friend move furniture, but you need computer help which is a skill they do not have? Adding another friend you find on the Hours Bank opens up a whole world of social options.
Would you like some help with your computer? A hand with car repair? Many Canadians are in crisis, facing doubled food costs, exploding expenses and unaffordable life. There’s nothing left and the choices are hard. What happens when you have no money left and get stuck?
Interesting facts: Can you help move this table? We naturally ask for help and we naturally offer help . This is a Charter activity, protected under Freedom of Expression. It’s your right to ask for help and your freedom to offer help.
