Sometimes a simple cup of coffee can create meaningful connections.
Bill and Gail decided to invite people to join them for a weekly coffee gathering at Tim Hortons. Bill took an active role in delivering invitations to friends around the community, helping spread the word and personally inviting people to attend.
With support for transportation and planning, Bill was able to take the lead in reaching out and building the connections that matter to him. The weekly coffee gathering is creating opportunities for friendship, conversation, and belonging for many in attendance.
This is a great example of supporting someone to be at the centre of their relationships — not by creating friendships for them, but by helping them build and strengthen connections in ways that are meaningful to them.
