We’re excited to share some great news!

We are proud to announce we were one of the winners at District 8 Participatory Budget Night, receiving $5,000 to help replace the awning and signage at our Furniture Building!

Councillor Virginia Hinch of Peninsula North made this funding opportunity available to local charitable organizations and was also present at the event Thursday evening. The District 8 community came out to vote, and we are so grateful for the support that helped make this possible!

This investment will help us improve our building’s appearance and make Parker Street an even more welcoming environment for our clients and community.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who voted, to Councillor Virginia Hinch, and to everyone involved in making this initiative possible. We appreciate the support for local businesses and are excited to get started on these improvements!

❤️ Thank you, District 8, for supporting local!
