CCFS and Community Way

Thursday 10 September 2009

The CCFS now has thousands of Community Way dollars to exchange with our donors for Canadian currency. Community Way dollars can be used to buy a wide variety of services and goods in the Comox Valley, such as coffee, bread, printing, massage, or acupuncture. Contact Andrew Nicoll at 897-9781 to purchase the Community Way dollars. This is a great way to donate to the Forest Society and receive valuable goods and services in return. You can find out more about which businesses accept Community Way dollars and how the Community Way system of currency works at communityway.ca.
