How can you give back to your community?
As people, we have this innate need to contribute to those around us. Whether that’s through something small like being there for a friend in need, or something massive like contributing our time or finances to a worthwhile cause.
Whichever it may be, we as humans understand the importance of giving back to society, especially during this wonderful and magical time of the year.
#supportyourlocals - How can citizens help local businesses?
The question is, how have businesses who are still standing adjusted to the lockdowns of Covid-19? Have they reinvented themselves in their approach, or do they need our support now more than ever?
#friendship - How have friendships changed during the pandemic?
Have you felt your friendships shift during this pandemic? In the first few months of lockdown, you might’ve put in the effort for virtual beers or wine with friends, maybe even branching out to online gaming or virtual workout sessions to keep things interesting… but was it sustainable, did it last? Join the conversation with Kristel Frich - co-founder of Arthood Collective, Cristina Sanchez - new media journalist & Alina & Johanna, from Pansy who have been best-friends for life. Join the conversation with all of us.
