ABOUT THE WELCOME PROJECT ⇣
As we all know, cities like Toronto are becoming increasingly difficult places to find and secure affordable, inspiring, operational spaces. At the same time, many faith communities with shrinking and aging congregations are exploring new approaches to expanding the use of their urban infrastructure – including nearly 30,000 campuses across Canada.
The Welcome Project is a multi-sectoral partnership that connects changemakers in need of space with stewards of faith properties committed to meeting emerging sustainability goals through creative co-location approaches and community building.
The #WelcomeProject Podcast invites diverse stakeholders to come together to discuss and lend their skill sets to efforts to expand the use of century-old churches as locally responsive community hubs. This includes churches across Canada, prospective partners in the social service and cultural sectors, and curious local champions.
Episode 102 focuses on sharing learnings from the partnership between East End United Regional Ministry and the Withrow Park Farmers' Market to help fuel a zero waste movement.
