enVision.ca - Cabot Loop Voluntary Clusters Project

The Clusters Project is an exciting opportunity for voluntary, non profit groups all around the Cabot Loop to collaborate on matters of common interest. Among the priority issues already identified is the challenge of recruiting volunteers for community activities and to serve on boards and committees. People also want to learn more about what other organizations are doing.
