Description (French)
Modernisation et amélioration d’une installation multifonction à North Sydney (Nouvelle-Écosse), ce qui comprend des améliorations de l’accessibilité pour les visiteurs utilisant des appareils d’aide à la mobilité (cannes, marchettes, etc.) ou qui ont une mobilité limitée en raison d’une blessure ou d’une invalidité. Le financement contribuera aussi à l’ajout de panneaux solaires, ce qui se traduira par une diminution des coûts de fonctionnement d’environ 35 000 $ par année. Ces économies seront réinvesties par l’organisme sans but lucratif dans d’autres programmes liés à la réduction de l’insécurité alimentaire et de la pauvreté.
