Community Focused Through the Years
Weston King Neighbourhood Centre was built by the community for the community. We have a long history of listening to our members through town halls, and voting sessions where the real people experiencing poverty can tell us what they need. Programs like our Housing Support Office, Kitchen Rental Space, and Harm Reduction Services were created in response to the needs they identified. We will continue to adapt and find new ways to serve our Community.
Accountability
With the generosity of our donors, WKNC is able to provide life-changing support to those in our community.
We respect the trust given to us by those who want to help, and so provide Annual Reports and Financial Statements for accountability. These provide essential insights into our impact in the Weston and Mount Dennis Communities and show how our funding is spent.
