Why do we remember on the 11th of November? That is an easy question to answer. We remember all of the soldiers who fought and those who lost their lives to give us the freedom we have now. We remember all those who served and continue to serve in Peace Keeping missions.
Lest we forget ❤️
Our friends at the Calgary Silver Linings Foundation are launching a new and exciting support group this Fall! This is a support group for adolescents struggling with an eating disorder. EDSNA wishes CSLF all the best with this group- you are certainly filling a service gap in #YYC 💜🎗
