Jill,

I'm really racking  my brain on this, but I can't think of anyone.  Try sending a message to Martina.  She might know someone.  If I think of anyone, I'll let you know.

 Sorry,

Andrew

Hi Jill,

Just came across your member page and saw you live in the east Beach! Me too. :)

Would love to meet you and have you on-board for a second east end TT group! If interested, message me your email address privately via my member page on here.

Best,

Hi Jill,

Thanks for your interest in the Community Cafe project! Our next big meeting will be Wednesday February 15 at 5pm, at Hugh Garner Co-op, 550 Ontario St, and you're welcome to join us. We're also planning our next cafe event to be held in late February. Meanwhile, working groups are meeting as well - Fundraising, Outreach, Business Planning, Food, Event Planning, Education on Co-ops.... If one of these sounds like something you'd like to get involved in, let me know, and I'll get you in touch with the right person.

Take care,

Rebecca
