The “Innovative Outreach for Nutrition, Cooking and Gardening” is in its second year, here at Powell River Brain Injury Society.
Last year (2014), we built a fenced garden area, with raised garden beds and had success with many of our crops.
With major funding from Opportunities Fund For Persons with Disabilities and increased funding from B.C. Community Gaming Grant, we are able to further develop our unique program.
The Oppsfund has allowed us to employ 4 clients part-time. These and our many volunteers are exceeding our expectations, and we are all learning valuable skills that will enrich our lives.
