Hi Everyone,
Nanaimo Location Update
I didn't want to say anything until there was progress but the Nanaimo location, 10 minutes south of VIU, is an option again. Renting a room from the owner and moving, I can now run a Home Business from that location and the City of Nanaimo approved my change of location yesterday. The pool is getting some repairs and then needs to be approved by an inspector. I don't know how long that will take but it's progress towards being in Nanaimo again! Jump Start grants 300-600$ Jump Start, in association with Canadian Tire is offering 300-600$ grants for Children in Nanaimo. I was contacted by Katlyn Soanes, the Jump Start Relationship Manager for Nanaimo. She said; "The funding is disbursed on a first-come, first-served basis and will be awarded to eligible families until the fund is exhausted." You can contact her at the links below for more information or apply online at the link below. Requirements - See Link (Individual Child Grants – Jumpstart) One requirement, that I can help with, is that classed must be 5 weeks and at least 1 session per week. I am happy to extend any lessons to 5 weeks if it's not already. My lessons are normally 4-5 weeks, once a week. Contact Information: Katlyn Soanes
