"A benefit of $2,400/year is 'wholly inadequate' to help people who need disability income support get out of poverty", said #DailyBreadTO CEO @NCHetherington about the funding allocation of the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit in the #federalbudget: yhoo.it/3JlqVT8 @YahooNews
#NationalVolunteerWeek continues! With many food banks across Canada being fully volunteer-run, these dedicated individuals play a critical role in helping their neighbours in need. However, due to steadily increasing demand, both staff and volunteers are at risk of burnout.
While launching the Canada Disability Benefit is a critical step, until it is properly funded it will only scratch the surface of what is desperately needed in our communities. #CDB #fundthebenefit #raisetherates bit.ly/49Gg0y3
