“I’m driven by compassion and care for the Mount Pleasant community. Not knowing what to do or who to contact when you feel unsafe is a scary and isolating feeling. My hope is that everyone who comes through our doors knows that this is a place where they can receive support.”

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

“I started my journey at Mount Pleasant Community Centre as a volunteer, where I had the pleasure of working alongside incredible fellow volunteers and a dedicated staff team. Their passion and commitment to the community inspired me every day. The supportive and welcoming environment made my experience truly rewarding. Now, as the Volunteer and Communication Coordinator, I’m grateful to give back to the place that helped me grow. I encourage anyone looking for a meaningful experience to get involved—you’ll not only make a difference but also find a community that supports and inspires you every step of the way”
