Things are ramping up around the Community Rider for the holiday season. Whether it’s shopping, events or travel for the holidays, our vehicles are out on the road ensuring everyone has access to transportation.
Do you know someone that would benefit from access to transportation? There are plenty of ways you can help Community Rider to continue to offer affordable transportation:
Volunteer to drive a few hours each week
Cover the cost of rides to a local event or business
Donations help us stay afloat and keep rates affordable
Every little bit helps. If you are interested in supporting local causes, ours is one that touches lives each and every day. Call our office at 902-883-4716 to find out more.
Thanks for being a caring community. Best wishes to you and yours for the holiday season!
7 SEATS LEFT!
Wednesday, December 4th 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The holidays are getting closer, the roads are getting busier and the weather is getting chilly. If you have presents to get, why not catch a FREE ride to Mic Mac Mall with the East Hants & Area Community Rider?
We have two vans ready to pick you up and drop you off from home. Open to anyone in our service area, from Waverley to Shubenacadie to Noel and anywhere in between!
2019 has been an amazing year for the Elmsdale Community Garden. We held pop up markets all over East Hants, promoted healthy living through physical activities, and put fresh produce on 2,474 plates. WOW!
We couldn’t have done it without the contributions of generous donations, community-minded partners and dedicated supporters. Thank you to everyone who gave their time and energy to provide for local families.
With 2020 just around the corner, we’re already planning for next year. We would love to build a greenhouse to give our plants a head start and donations allow us to spend more time and effort to reach more people in need.
East Hants Community Learning Association will be hosting a FREEStrengthsFinder course on Thursday, December 5th, from
9 a.m. to 2 p.m. This is the perfect opportunity to learn which skills set you apart.
The Municipality of East Hants has an online survey on the accessibility of local buildings, infrastructure and communities. Take a few minutes, fill out a survey and share your perspective: easthants.ca/accessibility-survey/
Thanks for staying engaging and supporting accessibility for all.
