Work with members in your community and make a difference

Originally, we started as a group of friends with some ideas of how to make the world a little nicer. Now we work towards this one project at a time. Starting with the brainstorming process we like to come up with creative ways to help people, animals and institutions in our community and around the world. We strive to make the world a better place and have fun while we're at it. Anyone who wants to volunteer with us is welcome to join!

Events in The Works:

Wise Talk - This is a monthly seminar we host to bring people together and inform them of what is going on in the community as well as recognizing success stories and teaching important life skills.

Community Yoga - To help promote active living we have partnered with Yoga teachers across Halifax to provide free yoga group yoga sessions to the public.

Community Kitchen - We have partnered with the Brunswick Street Mission to help provide the Mission’s visitors with a hot healthy meal. For this, we need to gather food and volunteers to cook and provide support for the visitors.

Wise Room - Wise Room is a housing initiative we have to rent out a room for free to people in need. To afford this we will rent out the room when not in use by in need patrons for funds to afford the rent to support the room.

Wise Search – We are exploring how we could assist in search an rescue efforts in the HRM. From loved ones who are flight risks to adventurers lost in the woods, we would like to support the efforts to find them. We aspire to be able to help rally volunteers to help search and be able to help cover incurred costs during the recovery of the missing persons.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is simple: We want to benefit those in need by bringing our heads together and solving problems. This includes all local issues.
