❄️ It’s almost that season again! ❄️

Winter is coming, and we’re getting ready for another year of Snow Angels in High River!

NEED A SNOW ANGEL?
If you’re a senior or have mobility challenges that make snow removal difficult, pick up a Snow Angel sign from the FCSS Resource Centre and place it in your yard.

WANT TO BE A SNOW ANGEL?
See a sign in your neighbourhood? Grab a shovel and lend a hand! No sign-up needed—youth, adults, families and neighbours can all be Snow Angels!

October 15 – April 30
Pickup a sign at the High River FCSS office:
403-652-8620.
251 9th Ave SW High River

A little shovelling can make a BIG difference!

Small acts can make a lifesaving difference. 🩸 💙

This summer, Western Financial Group employees rolled up their sleeves to support Canada’s Lifeline through our first corporate blood drive with Canadian Blood Services. From July 1 to September 1, employees across five regional teams donated 62 units of blood and plasma, including 43 new and reinstated donors.

Organized through Western Communities Foundation’s Good Heart program, the campaign is one more way our employees are helping strengthen the communities where they live and work.

Thank you to everyone who donated, encouraged a colleague or helped spread the word, and to our National Champion, Krystal Hoover, and the employee volunteers who helped make the campaign a success.

Together, we’re helping strengthen Canada’s blood supply and support patients and families when they need it most.

🏡Helping Seniors Stay Independent with the In-Home Assistance Program! 🏡

At the Nanton Quality of Life Foundation, we understand the importance of staying in the place you call home. That’s why we created the In-Home Assistance Program, designed to help seniors with the heavier tasks of home maintenance—without the need to move into a lodge setting.

This program not only supports seniors in maintaining their independence but also helps them stay active in our community. And when seniors thrive, the whole community benefits! 🌟

💛 Now Accepting New Clients! 💛
If you or someone you know could use a helping hand at home, we’re here to help.

📞 Call the Nanton Quality of Life Foundation today at 403-646-2436 to learn more or get started.

Let’s keep our seniors thriving in the homes they love! Share this post to spread
