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. 

 

On November 30th we held our first Christmas Market at The Hub, it was a great success with over 630 visitors, 31 vendors and 47 volunteers from PPC. We raised over $4,000 but more importantly was the impact on our community with their awareness of both PPC and the Hub building project. This was the first time many of the visitors had been on our property and the consensus was extremely positive. 

 

We continue to make requests to large donors, business leaders and write applications for foundation and government grants. The Hub was very thankful to the City of Pickering for their 2024 grant of $20,000 towards the renovation project!

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 SOON 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.
