Our family is on social assistance due to my husband's cancer and me being a full-time student. It is hard to find money to go out, however it is very beneficial for mental health. I saw an event in our community newsletter, a culinary workshop, that we would have loved to attend but could not afford the $40 tickets. So I contacted a person in charge of the event and after explaining our situation she gladly offered me to purchase the tickets for $5 a piece.
