We’re transforming the unused sports changing rooms alongside our centre in Nawton, Hamilton into a brand-new youth hub!
Nawton, Hamilton
A Fresh Space for New Generations!
We’re transforming unused sports changing rooms into a vibrant youth space right by the skate park and basketball court! This will be a place for young people to gather, connect, have fun, access services, and engage with youth workers. Thanks to Hamilton City Council for gifting us the space, we’re ready to bring this vision to life.
For nearly 50 years, the Western Community Centre has been a hub for activities, events, and community support. Now, we need your help to create A Fresh Space for New Generations!
Our Goal
We’re raising $950,000 to renovate this youth hub, ensuring it’s a thriving, fully functional space.
So far, we’ve raised $863,518
