What's Up, Welland?

Celebrating a significant community milestone and a future filled with hope

City of Welland Season 3 Episode 49

For 50 years, The Hope Centre has been a cornerstone of compassion and care in Welland. Here to highlight the organization’s vital services are Jon Braithwaite, CEO, and Jennifer Sinclair, community engagement coordinator.

Providing programs that address food security, housing support, and skill-building, the centre also functions as a community hub where partnerships with other organizations create a safety net of services for those in need.

But our conversation doesn’t end there. As The Hope Centre celebrates its 50th anniversary, we delve into its origins and look ahead to its future, warmly acknowledging the incredible work that happens when a community comes together.

Complementing the insights and stories shared by Jon and Jennifer, the Celebrating 50 Years of Hope video series showcases resilience and dedication from people who’ve made the centre’s last five decades impactful.
