GRIEFY CRAFTERNOON - September 8th

Bring a crafting project you're working on, or use our supplies. Make a craft in memory of your person, or just because. Share memories of your person while you craft, talk about something unrelated, or work on your project in silence. This drop-in program meets on the second Tuesday of each month at 1:30pm. Everyone is welcome!

No registration required and no fee. We are located at Providence Village (1200 Princess St.); come in through the Main Entrance and reception will direct you to our space.

Can't make it to the Walk to Remember on September 27th? You can still celebrate the memory of your person and support BFO-Kingston! Make a donation (any amount!) to the Carrying Hearts page and a BFO-Kingston volunteer will be honoured to carry your person's name written on a heart-shaped paper in our heart-shaped bag 💙

BFO-Kingston is so fortunate to be part of Charitable Gaming. Community Good. Funds raised at Play Gaming & Entertainment help support our programs and make a difference in our community. We recently were able to use some of those funds to purchase a new TV to improve the hybrid meeting experience for our participants and facilitators!

When you play, local charities win!
