After our AGM last week, it’s now time to celebrate the Enchanté Network’s first birthday!

To highlight our community’s accomplishments from the past year, we’re hosting a month-long virtual birthday bash — and you’re all invited! For the entire month of March, we’re celebrating the wonderful community that our member organizations have built over the past year.

How to join the social media fun

You can follow the hashtag #EnchanteParty and check us out on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to stay up to date on all the fun activities happening for our communities this month.

Your organization can also join in—and amplify—all the birthday fun with our social media toolkit!

Facebook Live on our Capacity Building Micro-Grant Program

As part of the celebrations, we are hosting Facebook lives on March 25th (English) and March 26th (French) to share information on this year’s upcoming Capacity Building Micro-Grants Program and to showcase several of last year’s winners. Here are shareables for you to promote the events with your communities.

Community Playlist

Since we’re throwing a party, we thought “why not make a fun, queer playlist together!”

If you’d like to suggest a song, then please either DM us on social media or send an email to info@enchantenetwork.ca

Pizza Party Giveaway

And for even more fun and tastiness, we are kicking off a contest to award one lucky Enchanté Network member organization with a PIZZA PARTY for their staff and/or volunteers. Of course we’ll ask you to keep it virtual and COVID-safe. The contest involves our member organizations introducing themselves as a member of the network and sharing their biggest win from the past year.

The winning organization will receive a $150 pizza party for their staff and/or volunteers.

Your entry must be posted on your organization’s Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram account — and not on a personal account.

To enter this contest, you must include in your post:

1. A sentence explaining that you’re a member of the Enchanté Network and that you’re introducing your organization to the network
2. Tell us what your team’s biggest win was from the past year
3. Use the #EnchanteParty hashtag and tag @EnchanteNetwork

As some examples: your “biggest win” could be that you grew your team’s capacity or started a new program. Or that you survived 2020 and pivoted to delivering online services.

Important Details:

1. This contest is only open to Enchanté Network member organizations.
2. The deadline is March 26th.
3. We’ll pay the full winner by e-transfer (or another payment method) and you can plan a (COVID-safe and distanced) pizza party for your team.

We’re ready to have some community fun and give away some tasty pizza; who’s with us?
