Friendship Centres
Friendship Centre's are revolutionary community service models that serve local residents, municipalities, and business partnerships. Friendship Centre's create tremendous value for residents through the application of asset based community development principles. Privately funded Friendship Centre's make a tremendous contribution to municipalities by creating valuable programs that benefit entire towns without the use of taxpayer dollars.

Friendship Centre's Deliver Valuable Services To The Community Through:
 Recreation programs provide fun for all ages and an opportunity to rest, enjoy and celebrate life with others.
 Resource Centre creates value based on specific neighborhood needs. Youth after-school programs, adult support groups and entrepreneurial business services are just a few of the many programs that are developed based on the needs of each individual community.
  Church planting addresses the spiritual needs of the neighborhood. The Friendship Centre will consult with leaders in the community to assist a church in providing programs that meet the needs of the neighborhood.


All services offered at the Friendship Centre also include opportunities for scholarship that assist families in financial need.
