Fundraising Efforts
Centre Communidée is a non-profit organization with the Quebec registration number 1166068313. We receive no external funding but instead we pay the rent and basic supplies through membership fees and grassroots fundraising projects. Extra money is re-invested into the centre: furniture, supplies, renting the gym, buying pizza at a party, and so on.
