: homelessness awareness week in victoria :

... Ron Cole, a friend of SBF's, and partner in the Dr. Bones Blues Project has a post over at 'The Weary Pilgrim' about needing a few volunteers to staff Mustard Seed's booth in the Bay Centre next week for homeless awareness week in Victoria. Ironic, eh? or maybe even intentional, the week following Thanksgiving ... quite the juxtaposition.

Take a minute and read Ron's impressions/assessment of recent changes in Victoria's economy and demographics.

I'm thinking of signing up for a stint or two. Anyone want to join me? For more information, the Greater Victoria Coalition to End Homelessness web page is here.

UPDATE : today Ron follows up yesterday's original request with a few thoughts.
