CivicAction's Summit took place around a year ago, on October 13, 2023. This event brought over 300 of this region's established and rising leaders together and underscored the critical need for collaboration across sectors to address the most pressing challenges facing the GTHA. While many leaders are working to make our region more liveable, actions are fragmented, impacting the speed and scale of solutions. The COVID-19 pandemic provides an amazing example of a time when all three levels of government, nonprofits and the private sector came together to urgently address a challenge and keep our communities as safe as possible. For two decades, CivicAction has catalyzed positive change through collaboration. We have seen leaders from all sectors, backgrounds, and experiences act to create a livable region for everyone. Today, the debates stirring on the Toronto waterfront are at risk of moving us all in the reverse direction. We need to recognize that businesses, communities, and governments must continue to share a vision that brings all interests together, not divide.

As autumn leaves start to fall, we at Match My Project are reflecting on what we like to call our “BRAT Summer” - but not in the way you might think! We’ve given the viral ‘brat’ trend a social value twist. In our world, BRAT stands for Bringing Resources And Transformation. While others embraced their inner brat, some local heroes were busy being community BRATs - using our platform to catalyse positive change! Here are just a few highlights from our summer of community action: 🏃♂️ Summer Sports Day: Good Neighbours (Jay Dee) and PURDY CONTRACTS LIMITED joined forces to bring back community spirit to the Coldbath and Orchard estate in Greenwich. Purdy provided volunteers to facilitate a day filled with smiles and family fun. 🎭 Clapham Park Funday Carnival: Metropolitan Thames Valley South London and PiLON Ltd collaborated to create a vibrant carnival procession. Young participants, including those with special educational needs, designed costumes and props, learning new skills and fostering community pride. 🧹 Nightingales Community Clear-up Day: SNG (Sovereign Network Group) Projects and ServiceMaster Clean By Deeland facilitated a day of community clean-up and engagement in Berkshire, bringing together local authorities, volunteers, and community partners to make a visible difference in their neighbourhood. Whether it's through sports, arts, or environmental initiatives, we've seen how Match My Project can multiply impact and bring people together. As we move into the cooler months, we’re excited to see new collaborations emerge. If you’re a business looking to maximise your community impact or a grassroots organisation seeking support, we’re here to help you make a difference. Let’s continue to be good neighbours and create thriving communities together. 🤝🏘️ Read more about how the inspiring organisations mentioned above used Match My Project to Bring Resources And Transformation to their communities here 👇 https://lnkd.in/e_8xDk82 #BRATSummer #CommunityImpact #MatchMyProject #Summer #LocalHeroes
