What to do this August in NDG

This August we are excited to have you at our end-of-summer party before we close for staff holidays. The party will be at the Monkland Community Centre on August 4th, from 2 to 4 pm. Make sure to reserve your spots as soon as possible by sending an email to info@womenontherise.ca!

After August 10th, we have one week of administrative work, wherein our centre will be closed to the public.

The last two weeks of August, all staff will be on holiday.

There's lots happening in the neighborhood during the next few weeks. Check out the NDG Community Council website to see what events are being offered.

Material donations are paused for now due to renovations taking place in our building. In the meantime, we encourage supporters to donate their material items to our partners at Maison Mosaik, who give items back to the community for free like Women on the Rise does.

Have a wonderful rest of your summer, and we look forward to seeing you again this autumn!

What to expect next month:
