If you're a woman you need to be on the alert. The east end is a better neighbourhood, period…read more I was waiting at a bus stop and a man stopped and said hello, I ignored him and he started yelling at me about Asians bring COVID here from Wuhan, how skinny I was I didn't eat, blah blah blah. I blocked him out because I was scared it would escalate. He walked away and started yelling again something about my purse. I peeked up to see if he was gone. The bus came and I got on shaken by the experience. I called the police the next day. They said if I saw him again and felt unsafe or if the harassment continued to call them. The area is sketchy and I always watch my back when I'm there.

On the morning of my birthday, December 24th, i woke up and decided to give myself a different kind…read moreof present. I decided to go completely out of my element and show up at a random place and help out.I'm not religious by any means but I know how important Xmas is to some people. I printed a list of soup kitchens that were offering Xmas dinners etc and started calling. After a list of unsuccessful calls, I started to loose hope. I understand you need to register beforehand and get a criminal check. Believe me, I can understand it. But all I wanted was to help out. What is a sista to do?? I mustered up whatever I had and called the next one on the list. Christie picked up. I explained I had no experience but I'm willing to help in any way I can. I am quick on my feet and can tell funny jokes. She was so sweet, she just casually said "sure, come on down". The Centre is a multi-service organization located in Toronto's West end providing community based programming for everyone. I took my Mississauga sheltered attitude, got into my whip and drove down to Ossington. This was a pretty defining moment for me. I know it's not much but it was something I could never bring myself to do. I'm scared of everything. It's pathetic. So,this is huge for someone who always needed to be reassured. I walked in and greeted the front desk guy. He was nice, gave me a name tag, a hair net and pointed to the kitchen. I walked in, nervous. There was 3 other girls all late 20's and 1 guy, late 30's. They seemed like they had been volunteering there for ages. Suffice to say, they weren't very welcoming and basically gave me the dirtiest jobs possible. I assume this was the initiation. I didn't care too much, I cleaned the bathroom better than they had seen it cleaned in years. The cleaning products were watered down garbage. I went a few stores down, got a new bottle of fantastic and VIM (the lemony kind -) continued to clean like super man. The place is pretty tiny. The kitchen is well equipped and large enough to fit a good 10people. With a wide island in the middle portioning out the cranberry , stuffing and sides. There's a few old PC's to the right for the kids along with a basket of arts, crayons, books & magazines etc . A long table to the left covered in tacky plastic. A few old men were playing cards with a few of the guys. There was a good amount of smirking from the volunteer pro-stars directly at me. This, I found fascinating. Most of the families are drug addicts. I was told not to interact with them too much. This is due to CAMH (Centre for addiction and mental health) being walking close. I left feeling pretty good about the experience and really wanted to share this with everyone and anyone. Especially for anyone who has the slightest thought of wanting to do something like this. This is the best way. Call her and do it up. There is lots of opportunities so please, I urge you to take a day out and help the community. Check it out ^_^ http://www.conccommunity.org/index.php xoxox M.

I'm giving 5 stars for all the activity except for the receptionist who's having a bad day and…read morewon't let my 13yr old nephew in the gym. His going to the gym with an adult. wearing crocs becuase they're doing weights. first he said no because of his age, then said no because because his wearing crocs. the only gym that crocs is not allowed. he can atleast sound nice atleast. Came in Saturday at 1:40pm.

I'm impressed. They haven't gone out of business yet like it's some it's community not wealthy…read morewealthy people so yeah I don't like the fact that you had to drop in after school. It's like extra freaking school man. You already have the full day of school and then you got the horror of going back to something just like it so I would not recommend even going there. They are just discriminating against all type of sports like pickle like just not pickle ball. I'm like surprised I came with a volleyball volleyball and a full bag of supplies to play with the volleyball so me and my dad were about to play in the gym right and just because they had drop they had no drop in volleyball. They didn't allow us to to play And then they said that we have to register into the system like I'm not going back to this place ever again neither am I going to any community centre like here's the thing I want to go play volleyball but here's the thing that's the only thing they don't allow terrible experience if I could give a zero star I would.
