Chag Sameach to the Jewish community as they celebrate Shemini Atzeret, which is held on the eighth day of assembly and is a separate holiday concluding Sukkot and the entire fall holiday season. It also marks the beginning of winter in the land of Israel.

@GroundUpWR getting people to fill this out might be a way to get more media coverage of the far-right move to take over WRDSB - worth a try? cbc.ca/news/canada/kitchener…

To help her continue on her journey to a full recovery, we've launched a fundraiser, the money from which will cover Fauzia's medical and rehabilitation expenses.
Your support in any way is valuable and truly appreciated.

Jesse reminded us that we are losing 3 people a week to drug overdoses in our Region.....that means that we will lose someone today....then someone in Friday, and then again on Sunday. We need real change now!

As we approach International Overdose Awareness Day we continue to lose people in our community at an alarming rate. The image of an empty purple chair is used to signify that someone is missing. Here at ACCKWA we feel the impact of this empty chair, and all the empty chairs.

And just like that, it’s been two years of Community Fridge KW. Happy Anniversary neighbours!
Two years of practicing mutual aid, facilitating community care, barn raising and working to reduce food insecurity & waste.
Long live decentralized direct action. Cheers KW 🤎

We are deeply saddened by the news of the severe vehicle accident our dear, beloved Fauzia has been in. She is currently in critical condition in an ICU in Dubai. Her family has requested privacy during this time. We ask everyone reading this post to make dua (prayers) for her.
