Welcome to Episode 115 of the podcast! Original Air Date: September 2, 2020 The Eat More Barbecue Podcast is a proud part of the Alberta Podcast Network, Locally Grown. Community Supported. This week’s network shoutout goes to Ed – Conversations About Teaching. Ed is a podcast about the teaching life. That means it is often about teaching, but it is also about the lives that teachers live – their passions and struggles in the classroom and beyond. Visit www.albertapodcastnetwork.com for links to Ed-Conversations About Teaching and all the other great shows on the network. This episode of the Eat More Barbecue podcast is brought to you by: ATB Financial. I want to talk to you about a new initiative from our friends at ATB, called ATB Goodness Grows. #ATBGoodnessGrows is an initiative that motivates Albertans to bring joyful moments to others. We’re all adjusting to being disconnected from the places, people and experiences we love...so making someone laugh, or bringing a smile to their day, has never been more needed or more powerful. From livestreams connecting business owners, to new and fun ways to celebrate things like Father’s Day, ATB hopes to inspire Albertans to keep the goodness growing! To find out more, or to get involved, visit www.atb.com/covid-19/community And The Edmonton Community Foundation. The foundation acts as a bridge between donors and charities to create a strong, vibrant community for generations to come. Did you know that you can start an endowment fund yourself or with a group — once it reaches $10,000, it can start distributing funds. Vital Signs is an annual check-up conducted by Edmonton Community Foundation, in partnership with Edmonton Social Planning Council, to measure how the community is doing. This year’s focus is on Arts, Philanthropy, Green Spaces, and Sport and Recreation Learn more at www.ecfoundation.org Eat More Barbecue is proud to support and to be a member of the Canadian BBQ Society.
