🎉 Just Oshawa – Free Draws for Our Verified Oshawa Connections!

#JustOshawa #Oshawa #LIFE #FIFE 

At Just Oshawa, we believe in something simple but powerful: real Oshawa supporting real Oshawa.

That’s why every business, group, organization, bar/restaurant/venue, and artist/crafter listed with us is independently verified to be from Oshawa — not just advertising to Oshawa.

Why We Do This

Many “community groups” online say they only share local content… but we all see the reality:

• Outside businesses posting in community groups

• Ads and promotions from other cities

• Spam and scams slipping through

• Non-local posts drowning out real Oshawa voices

• Paid promotions are getting priority, while grassroots efforts are getting pushed down

We built Just Oshawa to change this.

💙 Community-Focused. Community-Verified.

Our platform is dedicated strictly to Oshawa content. We take the time to verify:

✔ Local small businesses ✔ Local groups & organizations helping Oshawa residents ✔ Local bars, restaurants & venues ✔ Local artists and crafters

If it’s listed, it’s truly from Oshawa.

No exceptions. No paid placements. No external ads.

🎁 Why We Offer Free Draws

To keep things fair and community-centred, everyone listed with Just Oshawa is automatically entered into our free draws.

These free draws are our way of:

• Increasing community awareness

• Highlighting Oshawa-first businesses and creators

• Supporting groups/organizations doing real work for local residents

• Keeping visibility balanced — not controlled by ad budgets

• Giving everyone an equal opportunity to be seen

There is no cost to be listed and no cost to be entered into the draws.

💬 Want to Be Included?

If you’re an Oshawa:

• Small Business

• Local Group or Organization

• Bar, Restaurant, or Venue

• Artist or Crafter

You can request to be added — freely done — and community members can also request to have their favourite Oshawa small business, group, organization, restaurant, venue, artist, or crafter added as well.

We simply verify that you’re truly based in Oshawa. Home-based businesses without public addresses can verify privately.

Those who support the Not Just A Food Program, the ILFJL Collective, or any of our community efforts are added automatically.

We don’t allow public posting — this ensures quality and keeps spam out. But we freely promote all verified Oshawa connections across our Just Oshawa profiles on multiple social networks.

🌿 Why It Matters

Corporate platforms reward whoever pays the most. Grassroots programs, local creators, and small businesses often get pushed aside.

We’re doing the opposite — lifting our community together, freely and with love.

Request to be added, increase your visibility, and become part of something built for Oshawa, by Oshawa.

Because LIFE – Love Is For Everyone, and so is community support. 💙
