Our staff was fortunate enough to be able to receive cultural sensitivity training guided by Pamela & Grouse last fall. As a group we learned an incredible amount and were so grateful to have had such a generous & empathetic pair to guide us. #Okanagan

"It’s called the ‘Central #Okanagan Rent Bank‘ & its singular purpose is to provide interest-free loans to low- and middle-income people struggling to pay rent.
The rent bank loan can be compared to a loan, but only for paying rent/utilities." #Kelowna
