Searching for an Accessibility Champion to help make a huge difference in the Downtown Oshawa Community!
Over 90% of the premises in the downtown centre core have barriers to entry.
Removing Barriers is desperately needed at this time when businesses that have struggled through COVID are reopening and the many seniors and those with disabilities who reside in the downtown will be coming out and wanting to shop local.
Adding Power Door Openers and chiseling out a step - like in the picture below of T-D Bank at 4 King St. W. level grade entrance - will MAKE A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE!
The deadline for a not-for-profit with an interest and concern about downtown Oshawa to apply to the Province for the $60,000 Inclusive Community Grant is March 3, 2022.
Waiting to hear back with great hope from one not-for profit... If the Board gives a green light, it will be time to rally and spread word for letters of support among downtown Oshawa residents, businesses, shoppers, visitors!
I believe many will agree, it's time to make this change happen!
Think of how many premises could be made accessible if the not-for-profit advocating for the Downtown Oshawa Community was awarded the grant!
