Calgary Outlink

Starting in September, we will no longer post regular updates on Twitter. Please make sure to follow us on other platforms to stay up to date with us! We appreciate everyone's understanding as we streamline our social media outreach.

Want to support Outlink over the holidays? Host a micro-bottle-drive on your street! Schedule a pickup and donate the refund to Outlink through @SkipTheDepot, and together we’ll turn holiday empties into community support. Download the campaign kit: drive.google.com/drive/folders/…
