3 days remaining in my birthday fundraiser and only $65 to go! Super appreciative of all the support to reach my goal and get the word out about the amazing work of the Elizabeth Fry Society ❤️❤️

I have had the unique ability to see up close how E Fry's work changes (and saves) people's lives. Frankly, it has changed my own, and I always appreciate getting the chance to give back.

A huge thanks to all for the birthday wishes and your support! <3

E Fry strives to address the root causes of criminalization of women, girls, and gender-diverse individuals. We do this through innovative programming, comprehensive housing supports, advocating for justice system reform, and supporting folks through their own capacity-building and empowerment.

Today is my 30th birthday, and I’m hoping to raise 30 gifts of $30 in 30 days for the Elizabeth Fry Society of Mainland Nova Scotia!

If you can give $5, $10, or even $30, not only would it mean the world to me BUT you will also get a charitable tax receipt!

Although our community is reeling from his loss, we also feel inspired to make sure that the work Harry cared so deeply about can continue.

Thanks to all for the love and support for our community in this difficult time <3

Harry would have loved this initiative. We can offer more legal services to those who are incarcerated and criminalized, and train soon-to-be lawyers in this critical work (while providing them with paid employment), in the hopes of expanding this area of law exponentially in our region.

My dear friend Harry Critchley passed away last weekend. We have created a Fund in his name for an articling student in Prison Law.

If you would like to contribute, you can donate at www.efrymns.ca/donate and write "Harry Critchley" in the message. You will receive a charitable tax receipt.

Emma Halpern lectures at the front of a classroom. Behind her, a quote reads: “This is our work. This will continue to be our work because we believe that our women and our gender diverse people need to be in our communities, and need to have housing, have love, have care, have healthy meals, and have people surrounding them who are supporting them. And that’s the work of E Fry. That’s what we do and what we will continue to do.”

So glad to have my Executive Director, my colleague, my mentor, my friend Emma Halpern give a guest lecture to my @schulichlaw.bsky.social students on Prison Law tonight! I displayed my favourite Emma quote behind her 🖤

Looking for suggestions for event venues in HRM for about 100-150 people! For a non-profit fundraiser, so the lower the event costs, the better it is for the cause 🖤
