There’s pride in going #backtoschool with items to call your own. Since 2018, the @owen_foundation has supported families through the Backpacks for the Community giveaway. Thank you to the partners and generous donors for empowering families supported at CUPS, and across #yyc.

For people experiencing homelessness, not knowing when, or if a meal will come—let alone a healthy one—and living conditions put additional, severe strains on health. CUPS supports clients living with diabetes. Learn more bit.ly/3Iaev0D. #diabetes #healthcare #wellness

Empowering people experiencing poverty and homelessness to reach their goals can't be done by just one organization. We are so grateful for the @mustardseedcan and their determination to build change for more than three decades. #yyc

No one chooses to live in homelessness, fear inflation, or battle the choice of food or rent. Not one person wants a life affected by trauma. Calgarians choose to come to CUPS, and we empower them to reach their goals. Any gift helps CUPS help people. bit.ly/3YvO2kD #yyc

#Alberta is a blend of different cultures and ethnicities and in #yyc alone, there are more than 200 ethnic origins. That diversity contributes to the strength of our community. From all of us at CUPS, we wish everyone a happy #HeritageDay. cupscalgary.com/cups-updates…

A social snack is a way to build connections through something as simple as a kind word, a smile to a stranger or offering your seat on the bus. These small, brief interactions can have a powerful impact on mental health. #yyc #Calgary #socialsnack #thankyou
