Episode description

The pandemic has impacted many people in community and has put a strain on resources. LakeCity Works, a Dartmouth-based social enterprise has received a total of $90,000 in grants from Co-operators Community Funds (CCF) over the last three years.

I spoke with Liam O'Rourke, Executive Director LakeCity Works and Chad Park, VP Sustainability & Citizenship, The Co-operators.
