Support the Forster Neighbourhood Centre

As the only place-based service open to the whole community, Forster Neighbourhood Centre has been inundated with an increase in both the number of clients and the level of complexity presenting at our service.

As a result, from 25 November 2024, Forster Neighbourhood Centre will close its central community hub to the public on Mondays. This is an essential step to protect the well-being of our staff and volunteers from the increased demand without the required funding to respond appropriately. This is a 25% reduction in service availability for our regional community in crisis.

The Forster Neighbourhood Centre requires an investment of $100,000 per annum to restore our central community hub to 5 days/week that will directly fund:

1. A Crisis Counsellor to respond to vulnerable community members presenting in crisis with complex issues.
2. The ongoing sustainability of the community hub operation as the place-based infrastructure to link community members with specialist services to meet their needs.

Our Missions statement is to support the well-being of all Great Lakes residents and after over 40 years delivering on this, we know it takes a village!

Could you spare a cup of coffee/week or event a month? If we can get 1000 community members to commit to $5/month, that would directly fund our Crisis Counsellor. Together we can create the change we need in our community!
