Our hearts go out to the Black community. There's so much work to be done to address decades of systemic racism. We stand with the Black community to take action against police brutality. Black Lives Matter. You matter.
If you need someone to talk to, we are always here for you.

A breath of fresh air! Last weekend, the @PACTProgram Grow-to-Learn crew used Zipcar vans to bring trees to members of the community in Toronto. Grow-to-Learn teaches schools and communities about food and gardening. Thanks for putting Zipcar to good work!

As a startup, we want to ensure our programs follow proven methods prior to launch, which is why we've been connecting with change makers like @PACTProgram. It was a pleasure hearing about the incredible work they do for at-risk youth. Show them some love & follow them on SM!

Yesterday, we talked with Mr. David Lockett from @PACTProgram regarding with restorative practices. He left us a lot to think about, including, "Often we're looking at things too complicatedly when we should be looking for simple things." #TheUnicornMovement @RotmanIThink

Yesterday we took a look at our now hibernating gardens. Ss asked ? like "will the plants grow back?" and "When will the garden be green again?". The unbound curiosity of our ss need to be nurtured as much as the gardens. So eager to get back to 🌾 @RJLANGTDSB @PACTProgram

The rain held off just enough for us to add to our pollinator garden with Liane and Jordan from PACT. Fun pollination game, some pollinator art and a soil filling contest. That was a great way to spend a morning together @RJLANGTDSB thanks @PACTProgram
