Right now rising housing costs are contributing to an #affordability crisis in #yyc. The average rent rose a shocking 22% in the last year, while the cost of buying a home is seeing the fastest increase in the nation. Demand > Supply. #yyccc #yychousing
We have a new blog contributor - our good friend @jeffdsilva . . . in his first blog post he offers a window into how volunteering awakened a part of himself that we have all come to know and love! #volunteering #impact #connections #belonging volunteerconnector.org/news/2023/8/31…
