Feature Charity: Oaklands Community Centre
Oaklands Community Centre
This month we are proud to be supporting the Oaklands Community Association, which provides a welcoming, engaging, sustainable community where all members can live, learn and thrive. Established in 1995 by a group of committed citizens, the Oaklands Community Centre opened its doors to the public in 2000. As a major employer within the neighbourhood, the OCA has approximately 14 full-time and 57 part-time employees as well as a number of contract instructors and over 100 volunteers.
The association offers both a summer and a winter farmers market, a wide range of recreation programs, a childcare centre, out-of-school care, camps, youth drop-in programs, community dinners, events, and learning workshops for everyone.
If you’d like to learn more about how to get involved, please visit the Oaklands Community Association website.
As with all of our featured charities, partial proceeds from the sale of growler fills from our Growler Station (at the brewery) will be given to this awesome and important organization.
Additionally, if you would like to donate directly to the organization, you can do so here.
