We are starting our fundraising efforts, we are starting the program in Oshawa in early May 2024. 

The basics for "Not Just A Food Program", a free meal and necessities delivered to an individual in need each week, and ongoing support. 

The funds raised until May 1st will give us a good idea of how many individuals we can start assisting. 

Funds will be used to purchase needed food to prepare the meals and purchase a basic list of necessities for the individual. 

We can not assist everyone, but we can reach out to 1 individual at a time to provide regular and consistent support. Growing with more volunteers and increased funding through active fundraisers we will be able to assist more and more individuals in need. 

Those interested in volunteer opportunities, please visit this link, to start, understand that those serious about volunteering will be required to sign up and have an active profile. We are using sections with added privacy options within this network that will allow us to post dates, and times, share details, and communicate with the various volunteer efforts. 

Information is abundant on the site to learn more about our efforts, and the reasons, from the About section of the network to the LIFE Community Project and FIFE - Food Is For Everyone. 

LIFE - Love Is For Everyone

Having worked on this concept for years, finally being able to bring everything together for this amazing opportunity to help create more and more benefits for our communities. We have our marketing platform to help raise awareness of our activities without having to pay for advertising. We have a self-contained platform that will continually raise awareness of all activities we have. 

We are going to use a combination of print/website and social media posting to increase the reach and engagement of our activities that create benefits within our community. Your group/organization will benefit from our 3-month campaign, with only 3 spaces available for this, the time to book a meeting to discover more details and arrange to become a part of this new and unique offer is now.

When selected to be 1 of the 3 available spaces, we will work with you to create an awareness piece to increase the information about your group/organization would like promoted. We will create daily postings across our social network profiles raising awareness of the fundraising efforts or information about your group/organization. We will use our connections with local small businesses to arrange posters to be placed to further increase awareness of your group/organization and the fundraising effort. 

We have a plan to further increase the reach and engagement of all our activities through the use of free draws and free products through sharing/liking/loving our content across our network. 

The basics of the fundraising, we have products that will be sold with a specific % of each product sold going directly to your group/organization's fundraising efforts. When we meet to go over more details we will have a breakdown of the price of each product and the amount of that purchase goes to your fundraising. We will have some featured products for consistent promotions like the "Gruffies Healthy Dog Treats" throughout the 3-month of promotions and others like the Refrigerator Magnets that will be while supplies last as we may discontinue some items to bring promotions to new products. 

We have already worked out the details for a small % of every sale to help fund our LIFE Community Project and FIFE - Food Is For Everyone efforts, creating a sustainable funding stream and creating more and more free food/clothing/necessities for those most in need within our community. We will have ongoing promotions to help us raise awareness of these various programs that will help with the overall awareness of all our site's efforts. 

While we wait for the onboarding of the 3 selected to participate we will be actively starting our overall promotions and sale of product-generated funding of our efforts and then when finished with the onboarding process the agreed-upon fundraising starts for your group/organization and we will no longer sell products for our efforts but will begin to solely focus on the 3 selected participants.  At the end of the 3 months, we will be selecting 3 again for another 3 three-month-long campaigns but may decide to change to 4 months long, we will see after we have gotten our first set of campaigns started and up and running. 

What a win-win for our community, ongoing and sustainable efforts while increasing the funding of others that will help to create even more benefits for our communities. In the coming days, you will also learn about our first focused efforts to see the start of a new free food program and funding towards the first Garden Towers that will provide more and more free fresh vegetables year-round. We have a plan, this is just the next step with our overall goals that we have been working on for years, we are dedicated to the many goals to create more and more benefits for our communities. 

LIFE - Love Is For Everyone 

We like to do things differently and to work with others to create amazing benefits for our community. We have been working on this for a long time, years to bring all the pieces together that will help to provide many ongoing and increasing benefits for our community.
We could have used our network to provide fundraising for our various efforts, but we want to do more and share our expertise and knowledge with others, to help those who also need options for fundraising. The issues that we have seen over the years, we put a lot of thought and planning into creating options that will create some great benefits for our communities.

We have built the entire network for this purpose, to create many layers of benefits for our communities. With free listings for local small businesses, the use of our social media profiles to freely post and share these listings through more than 10 different social networks. This increases the awareness of those listings and their business content information on all the social networks we have for our Just Community Networks. This starts to allow each business/group/organization we list to show in the search results even if those businesses/groups/organizations do not have a profile within those networks. We create our posts across different social networks to ensure that there are no more than 2 clicks without having to search for the business contact information including websites and social media profiles the business has. 

We freely create and post/share our listings, all a business/group/organization needs to do is let us know they would like their free listings unless we have already created a listing for them. We have just begun to rebuild our listings with this new site, allowing us to do more and create added options within our various listings. Being a hyperlocal network allows us a unique ability to focus on content just for our individual communities. 

We have a solid reach and engagement and will rapidly increase and grow our entire network with the start of our new promotions starting. We are going to start to accept a 3-month trial for up to 3 local small groups/organizations that would like to increase the awareness of their group/organization while also generating funding for their efforts. This will be freely done with their permission, including banner ads on our website, and ad space within our video promotions. There will also be print distribution using posters and flyers further raising awareness. We will be adding more and more products that will become available for the fundraising efforts with many of the options being relevant to the community, like the current options with Canvas Prints, Framed Prints, and Refrigerator Magnets using images taken in and from the community.

In the coming days, you will start to see more and more of the promotional material we are working on. You will learn about a couple of new programs that the LIFE Community Project will be starting and how this network is funding these new programs to provide free food/clothing/necessities for those most in need. We will start putting the entire program together and making it publicly available. This will grow at its own pace, we have a lot of work still to do to finish the framework of the programs and projects we are starting. Those choosing to join the network will be able to access some content that will be members only that will including free draws and access to free products. 

Those interested in learning more can contact on here John E Walker, On Facebook, info@JustOshawa.com, or Info@ILFJL.com to arrange a meeting for coffee/tea or can meet at your place in Oshawa.
