🍢 What an incredible evening of cooking, learning and connection!

Our BBQ Skewers class with Chef Marcel of The Gourmet Kettle was a hit! Participants learned all the basics; from preparing and seasoning ingredients to creating delicious skewers! And the best part was sharing good food, laughter and conversation together.

A heartfelt thank you to Chef Marcel for sharing his time, talent and passion with our learners! We are also so grateful to everyone who attended and helped make the evening so special. This is what community learning is all about!

🎉 Financial Literacy Basics 2026 is a wrap! 🎉

Thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s series. We were thrilled to welcome 18 learners in total!

Throughout the program, participants developed practical skills in budgeting, managing debt, banking, saving, building emergency funds, smart spending, recognizing fraud and scams, and creating healthier financial habits. These are valuable tools that can support greater confidence, independence, and financial wellness.

A huge thank-you to Alberta Investment Management Corporation for once again sponsoring this important series and helping us offer accessible financial education in our community.

We are also incredibly grateful to our knowledgeable and engaging presenters; Toyin Fannie Sharman, Daniel Kim, and Steph Brown! Thank you for sharing your expertise, answering questions, and creating a welcoming environment where everyone could learn and grow.

Congratulations to all our participants; we hope you leave the series feeling informed, empowered, and ready to put your new skills into action! 💪🏽💚💲

Hinton Community- WE Need Your HELP!!

Our community is facing a growing need for safe shelter, support, and meaningful pathways forward for people experiencing homelessness or increasingly at risk of becoming homeless.

We URGENTLY need to secure a permanent location for an overnight shelter and daytime support services in Hinton. but we cannot do this alone..

We need businesses, organizations, community members, and community leaders to help make this vision a reality.

This is our community. This is our opportunity to make a difference.

Together, we can HELP Hinton move from crisis to stability, from homelessness to housing, and from surviving to thriving.

Homelessness does not discriminate, and it can happen to anyone, in any situation.
