Bonavista Cares is a community-based organization of families and neighbours committed to helping others.
Embracing that fall feeling? Bonavista Cares and Parkland Cares have many upcoming opportunities to reach out and help others.
We had a very productive planning meeting in September. There were lots of great ideas and helping hands.
Thank you for the recent support, Bonavista; we received beautiful handwritten thank you cards from the students who received backpacks with new school supplies. As well, we donated 200 pounds of fresh veggies to the Calgary Food Bank after a bountiful harvest!
