President EFCL

If you live, work and play in Edmonton, you're our kind of people! Help Edmonton's Community Leagues build a more connected city #crowdfunding @fundrazr Support and Retweet give.crowdfunding.alberta.ca/CommunityLeagu…

Today is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. The land on which all Community Leagues operate is Treaty 6 land. We are all treaty people. We are all dedicated toward truth and reconciliation. Learn more: orangeshirtday.org Local resources: bentarrow.ca/about-us-copy-…

The EFCL today expresses solidarity with its member Leagues, their members, and all residents in their communities, most especially youth, who could be made to feel unsafe or unwelcomed by a planned protest on their neighbourhood streets.

New here? Heard about Community League Day and poking around to figure out what Leagues are? We've got you covered. Let's start with finding your League. Click this link: efcl.org/league-search/ #DiscoverYEGLeagues #YEGCommunity #YEGEvents

We dug a bit. This was put in place by an @EFCL board member. They saw a mother at the bus stop struggling to put a bandage on their kid and lamented the loss of shelters/benches. So they donated furniture. It's been there for more than a year. Stories like this fuel our work.

I wonder what #yegCC planners consider when planning bus routes or develop plans for densification. On warmer days I'll definitely walk. If there's safe bike lockup maybe I'll finally buy a bike. Such is the reality of people who can't drive & rely on #yegTransit.

Happy to be attending the Urban Planning Committee meeting today to support our team in providing feedback on the #YEG District Plans. Community Leagues have been mentioned a few times already. Let’s ensure we have our say in the future of our city. #yegcc #yegcl #efcl

The EFCL is supporting Riverbend Community League volunteers who must now rebuild their hall after an act of violence against their facility. Want to help, financially or otherwise? efcl.org/fundraising/ri… #yegcls #yegcc

Happy New Year! We wish you, your loved ones and your community joy, prosperity and connection. Let's make 2023 a year to remember.

Volunteers with Community Leagues just want to create safe spaces for our neighbours to gather. For Riverbend's hall to be hit not once, but TWICE, is appalling. Time spent dealing with the aftermath of vandalism is better spent building community.

See you in 2023 🥳. The EFCL office is currently closed. We'll be back on Jan. 3.
