Photography, Environment and Aurora Hunting in Iceland
If you are interested in topics such as climate change, waste management, animal protection and sustainability, and you also love taking photographs or want to develop your photography skills, then this project is for you!
While developing artistic and technical photography skills, you will be focusing on environmental and sustainability issues through non-formal activities such as workshops, discussions, presentations and visits facilitated by the project coordinators. One of our aims is to help create more environmentally aware consumers and travellers!
You will visit local projects focused on the environment and conservation. These may include hands-on activities or guided visits. Some examples include outdoor cleanup tasks, a community dinner or a visit to a recycling centre, a geothermal power plant, a museum or exhibition. Some of these activities are dependent on conditions such as weather, pandemic-related restrictions, as well as availability of our partners.
You will also have time to put the theory about photography into practice, walking around and exploring the city. At the end of the project, the best photographs from each participant are selected for an online exhibition. Participants should bring their own digital cameras, lenses, tripods and laptops if possible.
Project dates:
January 6 - January 15, 2024

I am reaching out for a dear friend of mine from Ontario who has found her and her young son living in a travel trailer on a rural property.
She is a healthcare worker, who like many of us are living hand to mouth. She has been very active in the Mutual Aid Advocacy and has helped many people in need, all while she is doing her best to stay afloat.
This is her second attempt for help before the snow and cold really settles in. Unfortunately she was taken advantage of by an online scam and lost the money she has saved and raised. An absolutely devastating blow.
The current electrical that she is hooked into does not allow for her to run her heaters while she cooks or uses other electrical appliances or devices. She has done her best to insulate their trailer. The propane system needs repair so she is reliant on electricity.
She is trying to fundraise for an upgrade to the electricity to the property.
So please, if you have a little extra, even $10.00, it would really help her and her little boy out. It only takes a few minutes to make this winter comfortable and safe for them while she saves for a home.
These are trying times and the costs of living are forcing many people out of their homes. No one in this country should have to live without this basic necessity. Let’s take care of each other.

The volunteers will be working on a countryside project in the West of Iceland, doing nature-conservation and environment-oriented tasks. We have been cooperating with the Icelandic Forest Service and our groups of volunteers have been helping out for 15 years in different locations all around the country; with very good results for the participants, the projects and the Icelandic nature conservation and reforestation efforts. The main tasks will be to maintain hiking paths, build stairs, make and put up signs. Volunteers will also put up benches and tables in the forest. Other tasks will be to trim branches and beautify groves that are located near hiking paths. Well maintained paths enable people to visit these amazing areas without damaging the surroundings and in addition our volunteers’ work helps to improve safety for visitors.
No previous experience is necessary, but the work is demanding and requires a good physical condition. As it is outdoors work, volunteers shall be ready to adapt and be flexible with the working and free-time schedule, as depending on the weather, we may not be able to perform some of the tasks or activities planned.

A CHRISTMAS SURPRISE !!!
Hello fellow neighbors. I am asking for help for my dad as a surprise. They 're fridge and cupboards are bare. Food is scarce.
Since my mother died 4.5 years ago, my dad's income has drastically dropped.
He is in a rough neighborhood where his car got vandalized and then hit by a snow plow totalling his vehicle all in the course of last year. With no proof he had to cover most of the expense. He financed a new car because he can't walk distances. The car is more expensive but it was the cheapest one he could get
They haven't really been able to have a good Christmas.
He helps some women in the neighborhood who finish work late by driving them home to ensure they're safety. He has taken care of my son and adopted him when he was 2 years old. He struggles on CPP paying expenses for 2 other family members apart from himself. My brother only works part-time, leaving my dad paying for his food on his little bit of income.
I am posting this hoping that some people who are better off, can maybe help them out and surprise them with a good Christmas .
I am in school and on social assistance I want to help them out but I simply can't. I struggle just to make my ends meet as single mom with my 10 month old daughter.
They could use food and whatever else you may think of.
My dad is too proud to ask people for help. The city doesn't give much in terms of a Christmas hamper. There's just too many people in need.He barely make's it each month. Sometimes his fridge is completely empty and cupboards will have only a few cans inside.
He was a hard worker in his younger years and now works hard to survive. He severed a tendent in his thumb many years ago and then got all sorts of health problems. He is an amazing dad and man, always thinking of others before himself.
I am hoping he can have a chance to be thought of by someone else.
At the moment my son (15 years old) doesn't have a winter jacket, I have been looking through thrift stores trying to find a good one. He's 15 years old and picky. I haven't found one I can afford that's to his liking. I feel terrible that I can't help my family in their times of need.
Thank you for your time
Happy holidays, cheers to all of you

Our English Conversation Group (ECG) has been helping newcomers practise and expand their everyday English since 1995. All we ask of our volunteers is that they have a decent command of English and a pleasant disposition.
On Monday evenings, volunteers and newcomers meet in a public place in old Ottawa East for one-on-one conversations. These conversations are relaxed and informal. You will meet new people, learn more about other cultures, and do a good deed in the process.
