North York Community HouseWelcome to our on-line home!North York Community House (NYCH) is a dynamic community centre providing exciting and innovative programs and services to the residents of southwest North York. We work with new Canadians, women, children, youth and families to foster a sense of belonging, independence, and creativity, and help build strong, healthy communities. NYCH celebrates 20 years!In 1990, NYCH came into existence as a result of a sizable donation from an anonymous benefactor. Over the course of twenty years, this single act of generosity grew into an organization dedicated to assisting newcomers to Toronto in settling and integrating into their community, and to building strong neighbourhoods. When NYCH’s doors first opened, it operated out of a tiny Bathurst Street storefront with a staff of two. As the community changed, NYCH kept pace. In the intervening years, NYCH has grown, moving into several locations and expanding its services. Today, a staff of over 100 conducts services in 50 locations to over 25,000 individuals. A few things at NYCH have remained unchanged, things like their commitment to working with individuals in an effort to strengthen communities. Imagine, all this from a single, anonymous donation. Join us this year in celebrating NYCH’s twentieth anniversary. We will be launching our anniversary celebrations at our Annual General Meeting on June 9, 2010, and hope to see you there. Help North York Community House to build a stronger community.General InquiresNorth York Community House 700 Lawrence Avenue West North York, Ontario M6A 3B4 email: nych@nych.ca
