The Friends of the North End Monthly Giving Program

The NECHC is a hub for those living in the North End of Halifax, Nova Scotia since 1971. We provide collaborative, multi-disciplinary primary health services to meet the needs of those who often face barriers to access. We additionally support health and well-being in our community through education and advocacy in an environment in which people are treated with respect and dignity and there is equitable access to services and programs. Beyond the physical clinic, NECHC strives to address various aspects of the social determinants of health.

The Friends of the North End Monthly Giving Program was established by a group of community leaders who wanted to give back to the North End community in a meaningful way. With the knowledge that NECHC does receive some government funding, it certainly does not cover all of our programs and outreach. This fund helps to cover costs that many of our grants and provincial funding are not able to, such as blood collection services for our patients, MOSH (Mobile Outreach Street Health) program, our pre-natal program, the Good Food Box and a host of other activities.
