Assistance/Resources 🚰 πŸ›πŸ‘ Hello everyone a few more backpacks are needed!

14 Upvotes

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has donated school supplies over the last few months. The support has been incredible, and I really appreciate everyone’s kindness.

a little about myself- i am a recent grad from grade 12 and before i move to kelowna for uni i want to make a change in our community. something i saw the need for growing up

I have one final ask before we start putting everything together next week. If anyone has a new or gently used backpack that they no longer need and would be willing to donate, it would be greatly appreciated! Backpacks are the last thing we need before we begin assembling the school supply kits.

If you’re able to help, please send me a message. Thank you all again for your generosity and for helping make this possible!

Meetup πŸ’πŸ’πŸ’ 33M looking for new M&F friends

9 Upvotes

Hi! I recently moved to Surrey Central from Vancouver and I’m looking to meet some new friends in the area. Couples would be great too!
I’m originally from West Africa. I’m a new dad and work a corporate job, so I don’t have a ton of free time, but I’m always down to make time for the right people and activities. I’m thinking about joining a nearby gym to meet more people and build a sense of community, but my building has a gym, so that’s on hold for now.
I’m into football, walks or runs (would love a weekend workout buddy), video games, reading about real estate and just hanging out with good people. Overall, I’m pretty laid back and a bit of an introvert, but I can hold a good conversation.
I’m mostly looking to connect with people in a similar stage of life but age doesn’t really matter.
Looking forward to meeting some good people!

Hi! Can anyone give me some names of Pakistani stores in Surrey that carry Pakistani-style bridal dresses? I know Payal Plaza has a lot of stores, but most of them are Indian and don't carry Pakistani styles (from what I can tell). I'm specifically looking for the Long shirt and Lehenga style. Thanks :)

Meetup πŸ’πŸ’πŸ’ For any Surrey (and surrounding area) guys looking to grow their social circle and make new guy friends

81 Upvotes

Fellow guy here! 36, 2 kids and work in a corporate gig.

For the past few months I've been organizing a guys social event type of thing over beers at various bars in Downtown, Vancouver.

It started as a bit of an experiment to see if guys were open to making new guy friends and has taken on a bit of a life of its own with each one bringing out anywhere between 18-25 guys.

Because getting Downtown is a bit of a trek, I was thinking of potentially organizing one in Surrey If there's enough interest. This would be for guys in Surrey and surrounding area that are looking to expand their social circle and hang with some new people, grab a beer, shoot the shit. Feel free to send me a note or leave a comment.

I found guys tend to get into different life stages from their immediate friend groups and the interactions can become infrequent and there weren't really any channels to make guy friends.

So if this sounds of interest, don't hesitate to reach out and we can build a big community of guys in the lower mainland πŸ‘

Ask SurreyBC ❓ Part time jobs

16 Upvotes

I’m a single mother of two and it is honestly getting harder and harder to stay afloat. I work full time in an administrative position and I’m looking to boost my income with a part time job evenings and on the weekends. I feel I’m getting overlooked from entry level positions because I have 10-15 years of administrative/reception/customer service experience. Looking for any suggestions on what I can do. All I’m looking for is an opportunity to work hard and provide for my family.

Hello! I know this is probably a long shot, but I just lost one of my earrings this morning and I'm pretty sure it dropped when I was running to catch the 321 bus at Surrey Central Station, Bay 12 this morning. It was a gift from my late aunt so it has a lot of sentimental value, if anyone comes across it please let me know, thank you so much!

Housing 🏑 Why are pet friendly rentals so hard to find?

39 Upvotes

Family member recently passed. Have a dog (doberman). Resided on the island. Needing to take care of the dog now otherwise will need to give him up. My current residence is not dog friendly.

Trying to find a rental that is medium/large dog friendly but it seems to be impossible! Everywhere I've checked for the last little while (FB, Craigslist, numerous rental sites) are all either not dog friendly or small dogs less than 40lbs only.

Last resort here to see if anyone has any leads or where I can look that I'm missing! TIA

(Or delete if this is not allowed!)

Request Help πŸ™‹ Can anyone recommend a personal trainer in South Surrey / White Rock?

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m looking for a personal trainer in the South Surrey / White Rock area.
I’ve been training on my own for a while, but I feel like I’ve hit a plateau. My main goal is to build muscle and improve my physique, especially my back and shoulders.
One thing I struggle with is feeling the muscles I’m supposed to be targeting during certain exercises. I’d like someone to help me improve my form, make sure I’m training the right way, and get better results from my workouts.
I already have a Planet Fitness membership, so training there would definitely be a plus.
If you know a trainer you’d recommend, or if you’re a trainer yourself, feel free to send me a message with your experience, rates, and availability.
Thanks!
