DONATE
As a non-profit community space committed to making our food affordable and never charging children to participate, we rely on donations to provide our youth programming!
​
You can make a donation specifically towards our youth budget by visiting our Canada Helps page and adding "for youth" in the message box. Thank you so much for supporting our kids!
TEEN LEADERSHIP CAMP
TLC is a summertime volunteer experience for high school students. Teens apply for one of two specialized streams - Front of House or Culinary Focus - and spend 4 days working alongside our fantastic staff to get a taste of the 541 community and get those community service hours!

Teen Leadership Camp is not being offered in 2023
