Support Children & Youth Programs

Thanks to generous donations from the community we revitalized and expanded our offerings at a Toronto Community Housing Complex in our neighbourhood. Our Summer Camp for ages 6-12, unfolded from Tuesday to Friday, featuring an array of activities. From tie-dye to artistic adventures, sports, and unforgettable field trips.

Additionally, we were able to launch a drop-in basketball program every Thursday night, tailor-made for the older boys in our community.In addition to teaching basketball and art skills, each day included a period of life skills where our summer youth workers emphasized topics such as leadership, mental well-being, motivation, and community safety.

As we stepped into the school year, our commitment to building connections only deepened. This fall, we've extended our reach by collaborating with The Peoples Church and Salvation Army to offer continued programming for our youth. 

We're determined to continue nurturing the positive relationships we started, bridging the gap between seasons and maintaining the warmth of community. Neighbour, we need your help to do it! 

Looking ahead to next year, we hope to provide opportunities, launch new programs, and cater to the unique needs of our youth.
