The Gift of Good Food annual fundraiser is back!
The Gift of Good Food raises funds to support local families facing food insecurity across the Capital Regional District with fresh produce every two weeks continually for a year.
The Good Food Box is Fernwood NRG’s food distribution program. It supplies fresh bags of produce to Gift of Good Food recipients. The Gift of Good Food partners with over 15 community-based organizations from Sooke to Saanich to directly support people at the neighbourhood level.
We have our own fundraising team! Help us reach our $1,500.00 goal and support families facing food insecurity in our neighbourhood with fresh produce for a year!
The campaign runs until midnight on December 31st, 2022. You can get involved by donating online!

Neighbourhood Planning
In advance of the City of Victoria's Official Neighbourhood Plan (ONP) Development process, the Oaklands Community Association has been tasked to provide the foundation for the plan.
We have recruited and struck an ONP Committee and will be engaging our neighbours in a variety of planning and feedback processes to ensure a neighbourhood plan that represents the will of the neighbourhood.

Out-of-School Care
Out-of-school care and licensed camps provide a positive atmosphere in which children can develop self-esteem, confidence, and social awareness. While ensuring the kids have a great time, our focus is to encourage and facilitate physical and mental well-being. Our staff offer a warm, safe, and welcoming environment so your child’s time here is fun and memorable. Your child will enjoy lots of fun adventures and create lasting memories. You, as a parent, can rest assured your child is in a safe, warm, and nurturing environment.
