+ Topic:

At Civic Tech Toronto, December is a time to reflect on our work over the past year and celebrate our projects' achievements. Join us this week to hear from the Chalmers Cards team!

Chalmers Cards is a guerilla project bringing information resources to people living in unstable housing conditions.

These small wooden laser-cut cards explain how to access public resources, apply for financial assistance, and obtain free legal aid.

Come help us chip away at civic problems by combining technology with the power of our community. We've got everything you need for a perfect Tuesday night: a presentation to learn from, some projects to work on, and 🍕pizza to snack on! 💧Help us be more sustainable by bringing a reusable water bottle.

(Coders are welcome, but you don’t have to be a coder to contribute!) Come and be part of it!
