Get (more) connected with your community: Timeraiser 2014

John Grant, CEF Contributor

This week we encourage you to get more connected and aware of the volunteer organizations in your community by checking out a local Timeraiser event if you're in Vancouver, Calgary, Regina, Winnipeg, Montreal, or St. John's! 

Not familiar with the initiative? If you're interested in art and in volunteering then this is the perfect event for you! Bid time (instead of money) on original local art. The time you bid then goes towards a volunteer non-profit organization who needs some help. Once your bid (hours) are fulfilled then you walk away with a beautiful new piece of art - and one that has a pretty cool story behind it when your friends and family ask about it!
