Wonderful Initiative



Vancouver has built modular homes for the homeless in a wonderful initiative. Toronto is interested in doing this too.

'Each modular home is about 320 sq. ft. in size and includes a bathroom and kitchen. The buildings are managed around-the-clock by a not-for-profit housing society, and residents are provided with various health and wellness support services, life employment skills training, and volunteer opportunities.'

AND Rain is starting a new art challenge on Thursdays if you are interested in joining.  Her first challenge is 'drips, dots and splatter'.

I saw Holland first, could be true, it's more or less round the corner here! Sounds like a great idea to help the homeless. Hugs, Valerie

I don't think so!
Vancouver has such problems with housing. Our kids are in a co-op, they are grateful, but it is small. They have few other choices if they want to be in the city.

Never thought about traveling to Holland but hey I am open for it. Sounds like a neat trip. Jumping over to check Rain's challenge out. Thanks for the headsup.

Did we all mostly see Greece first??? I did! Though with my fear of flying, I doubt I'll ever see Greece in person...maybe a Greek dinner is in order! ;) Thanks for mentioning the art date Christine!! :)
