North Hastings Youth in Action has a new social enterprise business model, to turn it into a self-sustaining organization.
Youth in Action offers a number of programs for local youth, based on community and youth needs.
Coordinator Shaan Dhillon says Youth in Action’s new goal is to become a self-sustaining organization.
Dhillon says giving youth the chance to take charge of these types of social enterprise projects will help them in the long run.
Dhillon says Youth in Action currently operates the canteen at the North Hastings Community Centre, to raise funds to go the organization’s programs.
Youth in Action is also hoping to create a Jiu Jitsu club in Bancroft, in order to fund a homework-help club.
Youth in our community are being invited to join Youth in Action, you can contact Dhillion at [email protected].
