Thrive Community Support Circle

Diwali is one of the biggest and most important national holidays in India, celebrated by many cultures and religions, including Sikhs and Hindus. Also known as the Festival of Lights, Diwali is based on the lunar calendar, and this year, it will be celebrated on November 1, 2024. Traditionally, it spans five days of festivities. We clean our homes, decorate our spaces, and light diyas (clay lamps and candles) to protect us from darkness and bring in light. We also visit the temple for a prayer service, enjoy fireworks, and share a special meal with loved ones, including delicious sweets. Sometimes, we exchange gifts with one another. Dhanyavaad (Thank you). ~ Penny ✨🪔 #HappyDiwali #ThriveCommunitySupportCircle

Thank you to our wonderful donor, Elizabeth, who has generously donated cozy pillows to bring warmth this cold season. We love the cute pillow designs! #ThriveCommunitySupportCircle #Winnipeg

It is that time of year again to get vaccinated! Every Monday at Thrive Community Support Circle, Public Health Nurse Julia is here from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm to provide COVID and flu vaccinations, as well as vaccines for hepatitis, pneumonia, HPV, tetanus, and more. A big thank you to Julia and the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority for helping vaccinate the community and making healthcare more accessible to folks who face barriers to healthcare. Stop by on Mondays to get protected!

Imagine a space specifically designed for those facing abuse or addiction, where privacy and comfort come first. With our new building, children, families, and individuals will finally have that space. Accessibility is a priority. Our new facility will include an elevator, public washrooms, and private rooms for urgent care, ensuring everyone can access support with dignity. ♿️💙 Our biggest challenge right now is the lack of private spaces for those experiencing sexual abuse, domestic violence, or addiction. But with your help, we can change that. Let’s come together to make this building a reality. We are committed to ensuring everyone feels safe and supported when they seek help, which is why we are expanding our programs and creating these crucial one-on-one support spaces in the new building.
