African-Canadian Christian Network (ACCN), North York, ON

ACCN is more than just a source of funding and offers capacity building to the many organizations that apply. The churches and their community partners offer a wealth of resources, which includes but is not limited to, culturally sensitive programming, real estate, and much intellectual property from the multi-disciplinary pool of talented volunteers who want to give of themselves for the betterment of our youth, families and community.

Volunteerism is at the core of ACCN’s successful operations, as the organization continues to support the efforts of Church and community partnerships to help our youth lead lives free of violence.
