November Update

November already. First things first. We have a new board member, appointed just a week ago. Her name is Tara Campbell-Sewart and I'm sure she will be a great addition to the Last House on the Block family.



We completed the second to last afghan blanket. We have one more in the works.



We have created a new page at our Weebly website. It is entitled Volunteers and it's about the people who donate their time and resources to our project.


This will be the last newsletter before the project starts this year. The start date is set for Monday, December 2. Our list of organizations this year will be:

Alcare Place,
Freedom Foundation,
Marguerite Center,
Laing House,
Direction 180
Stewart Place and Amethyst Apartments (Welcome Housing & Support Services),
Among Friends Social Club,
Feeding Others of Dartmouth,
Brunswick Street Mission,
Souls Harbour Rescue Mission,
Stepping Stone Association,
Herring Cove Apartments (Shelter NS),
Fit It Forward.
Supportive Housing For Young Mothers (SHYM),
Women In Supported Housing (WISH).
Mi'kmaq Native Friendship Center,
Frank Mackay House (Dartmouth Shelter Society)
Club 24

Last month we received a $500 donation from Newcomp Interiors, a $100 donation from Woodlawn Kiwanis and a $300 donation from an anonymous donor. The money will go toward the purchase of thermal socks, christmas cards, candy canes, and gift bags to put the gifts in.

In case you don't know already, the location of our registered office is

Last House on the Block Society
38 Trentonian Lane
Dartmouth, NS
B2W 0C4


That's the address you would send a check or money order to if you wanted to make a donation the old fashioned way.
