Grassroots charities gain essential financial and administrative support through The Trustee Hub

For many small, grassroots charitable organizations, fulfilling their mandates with limited funding and administrative expertise is challenging. That’s why they turn to the Trustee Hub.

The goal of the Hub is simple: to support innovative community initiatives by leveraging The Neighbourhood Group Community Services’ financial, fundraising and administrative resources. This experience and expertise builds small organizations’ capacity and allows them to focus on the people and communities they serve, including youth, people from racialized groups, and women.

By acting as a trustee for these essential organizations, The Neighbourhood Group fulfills its own mission to improve the lives of the people in our communities, and the communities themselves.

Trustee Spotlight: St. Jamestown Youth United

St. Jamestown Youth United engages racialized and low-income youth to address issues that matter most. By identifying what is most critical within the high-density St. Jamestown neighbourhood, youth work hand-in-hand with their community to address those issues. This increase in community capacity helps young people develop leadership skills, gain opportunities for civic engagement, and improve their self-awareness, all of which allows them to better realize their power and potential.
