Be-Friends and Family Friendship Program start: November

November marks the beginning of the next pairing of newcomers and volunteers in our popular Be-Friends and Family Friendship Programs.

For those who are unfamiliar with the program, Be-Friends pairs adults aged 19-30 and Family Friendship pairs parents of any age. A volunteer who has lived here for 3 years or more is paired with a newcomer based on shared interests, and the two spend an hour or so each week doing things they both enjoy and talking about life in the city.

This is a great program for people who work full-time, and includes great training and bi-monthly group activities; all during evenings or weekends!

To sign up, contact Aviva Shtull at aviva@vircs.bc.ca, or 250-361-9433 x242.
