THE HUB

*NEW* Youth and Seniors Centre in Pickering

THE WHAT

What is
The Hub?

A Hub (7,000 sq. ft.) of space previously rented to an insurance company on Pickering Pentecostal Church property that requires total renovation that will be multi-functional. Contractor quotes indicate a cost of roughly $1Million to bring this space up to code and operational.

​

It will create a safe place for the community to gather and belong. It will provide holistic support for both youth and seniors with connections, engagement, empowerment and integrated programming.

​

The Hub is primarily for youths & seniors, but will also offer family programs such as Mommy & Me, Grief Share, and Autism support.

HOW & WHEN

HOW

We will fund-raise to provide for this multifunctional space in a variety of ways:

We utilized a Silent Auction at the 60th anniversary banquet in May and raised nearly $10,000 and at our Open House on June 30th we raised even more. 

 

In July our Youth organized two bake sales and a car wash raising an additional $2,300!

 

As of August 15th, we had achieved $255,000 in actual donations from our church family and the local business community. With pledges still to come in our goal of $500,000 by January 1st 2025 is possible!

 

This season our hope is to hold a Christmas Market with another Silent Auction followed by a special winter event around Valentine’s Day. Next Spring we hope to host a Walk-A-Thon for the Hub and will also be makingrequests to large donors and marketplace leaders, applying for grants from governments and foundations. 

 

The entire congregation at Pickering Pentecostal Church will support this project with funds and practical skills. Encouraging seniors to support not only with donations but also involving them in various projects, campaigns and sponsorships. 

​

We believe God will provide! CLICK HERE to help today.

WHEN

Renovation will begin in the Fall of 2024 with the donation of viable materials, receiving the appropriate permits then the demolishing & removal of waste.

​

We will be constructing rooms, a functional kitchen, and washrooms compliant to government standards, which involves framing, drywalling, and painting. We will resurface both the work and community floors to ensure safety. Installation of new energy efficient electrical, lighting, sound/tech, HVAC system will all take place.

​

Using movable walls so the space can be refigured as needed. Furniture and furnishings will be in place by 2025, then programs & staffing developed and a grand opening date will be set.
