On Wednesday, February 12 come see us in the promenade at Central Branch from 10am to 2pm where we will:
👉 Have colouring and Origami (paper-folding) activities for kids
👉 Provide an RESP (education saving) workshops for parents – children are welcome to attend!
👉 Run a Piggy Bank Workshop for children and their parents to teach children to save
👉 Chat with you about what’s tough for your family
👉 Refer you to resources and programming that’d be a good fit for your family’s specific needs
👉 Discuss the problems we’re seeing families face – and the solutions FSGV is working toward
We’ve teamed up with the folks at VPL to strengthen families in our community. You define family; we support it. That means connecting you and your family to what you need:
Feeling the stress of the ongoing cost of living crisis?
Financial Empowerment is here for you with free 1-on-1 coaching and workshops on budgeting, accessing and maximizing benefits, registered savings, and filing taxes.
Looking to boost what you know about your child’s emotional, physical, and mental development?
We have parenting groups that parents and caregivers can attend to learn about their child’s development and how to support it.
Free workshops
Come join our 15-minute workshops by experienced financial coaches and family counsellors on various topics. Children are welcome to attend all workshops and activities with their parents.
