New Member s in the club are: Agnes (Miu Miu) Ng, Susanna Chow, James Slessor and Pilllip Cheung. Welcome to Rotary Vancouver Fraserview!
Last month we had a presentation from this amazing group of people, and have made the decision to donate $500.00 to this worthy cause, they will be guests at an upcoming meeting.
Beyond the Conversation is a non profit association with the goal of ending social isolation by building strong community through conversation.
People are experiencing loneliness and isolation, a reality that most of our Canadian-born, immigrant seniors, and refugee claimants are facing in life. Surveys have shown that language barrier is the major cause of social isolation. Amie Peacock founded the Beyond The Conversation group in November of 2015 to help seniors in Metro Vancouver to learn basic conversational English.
