From the very step we made into the Congress hall, Isabelle and I realized how much care the organizing team put in all their preparations!
For us to see the signs with the invite to the 100 Seeds of Joy meditation (and with our logo) being placed in the center (literally :-)), of every table all around us, made our hearts expand with Joy!
Later on we realized that also on all tables was placed our “The Power Lies within You” flyer with the free meditation classes offered in the Halton region.
All of a sudden we weren’t ‘just a Speaker and her Guest’, instead we felt included and seen.
Thank You Volunteer Halton and CDH! You rock!

Above are just some of the reflections from Ioana Popa, from 100 Seeds of Joy
about her experience at the 3rd annual Halton NonProfit Congress. Not only did 100 Seeds of Joy attend Congres, but they also offered up a wonderful meditation session for other Congress attendees.
100 Seeds of Joy, is a Community Development Halton member organization. They are engaged and always looking for ways to contribute to community building. Their words above remind me of the learning we have been doing on belonging; that we might all be seen, this is powerful. Ioana's reflections on both participating at the November 8th event and making a contribution is a wonderful example to us about what happens when we ensure that our member organizations, their gifts and passions are at the centre of our work at CDH. The reciprocity in associational life or membership, should not be overlooked as we are looking for ways to build community and create change. We are all stronger for it.
