As the number of COVID-19 cases in our communities and health centres mount, the TGCA is looking to our residents and members to ask how we can be of service.  

We would like to connect people who need help to those who can provide help during these extremely trying times. 

Whether someone is struggling financially, is in quarantine and can’t do their errands, or just needs help with things like clearing snow from their walks or walking a dog, we can offer support to each other. These simple errands and tasks can be impossible for many folks to do under current Alberta Health Services restrictions, and your assistance could allow a neighbour to avoid making some of the hardest decisions many of us ever face.  

Breaking quarantine to feed yourself shouldn’t be something any of us have to consider. 

Can you provide some support to a neighbour? Do you need some support from a neighbour? If you can help or need help with grocery deliveries, clearing sidewalks, or walking pets, please sign up below.

When two parties have been matched and determined to be a good fit, contact information will be shared by the TGCA between them, and the arrangements for their helper/helpee relationship will be left to their discretion. 

Important: if you are helping out a neighbour, or a neighbour is helping you, take all necessary steps to ensure that you have limited or no contact with that person.

Use a face covering and hand sanitiser before, during and after any contact between parties.

If you are receiving a delivery, set it aside for 48 hours to ensure that any possible virus contamination has expired.

If you are walking a pet, please take all the necessary precautions and make certain that you touch the animal as little as possible.
