Community Lunch and Learn

In 2024 Antigonish was host to a powerful wellbeing project called “Care for Caretakers”. The first of it’s kind, this program was fully funded by the Mental Health Foundation of NS and by local philanthropic contributions, with support from the County of Antigonish, Community Foundations of Nova Scotia and CLARI.

We warmly invite you to a special community event on July 30th from 11:00 AM to 2:30 PM at the Antigonish Farmers Market where, over a delicious shared lunch, we will present the findings from the 2024 Care for Caretakers Fellowship—a groundbreaking, community-rooted initiative designed to restore, recognize, and reimagine support for the people who hold our communities together.

Please RSVP to amVubmlmZXIgfCBmaXJlbG9jaCAhIGNvbQ== by July 28rd to reserve your spot and to confirm any dietary restrictions.

We also encourage you to share this invitation with other local organizations, colleagues, or collaborators who care about community well-being, nonprofit sustainability, and frontline caretaker resilience.

Let’s come together to build a culture of care—one that sustains those who sustain us.
