A heartfelt thank-you to the volunteers who make Ignite and Ignite Huron such special places for young people.
To our Ignite volunteers: you show up every Tuesday night with energy, creativity and genuine care. Ignite is a truly special place where kids can have fun, be creative, and feel …free to be themselves — and that magic exists because of you. You engage with the kids, share stories and give them your full attention. Your dedication and commitment are what make this program thrive. You’re the spark that makes Ignite the place everyone can’t wait to be every Tuesday night!
To our Ignite Huron volunteers: thank you for committing to the year-long, 1:1 journey of mentorship. Your dedication and passion for helping young people grow and succeed is truly inspiring. The way you connect with your mentee, show up consistently, and become a steady, supportive role model makes a powerful impact. Your creativity in planning weekly activities and the care you show on special occasions is nothing short of heartwarming.
Thank you, all, for investing so deeply in these young people and for being such remarkable role models in their lives. We are so proud to have you on our team.
Happy National Volunteer Week!

Today we're shining a light on the volunteers who make Summer Club, Winter Club and Garden Mentorship so meaningful for the young people in our community.
You are the volunteers who love creating memories! Every week, you pick up your mentee and head out for a favourite activity — …whether it's skating, swimming, or tending to the garden you planted together. Your consistency and support shine through as you build strong, meaningful relationships in such a short time.
Your dedication shows in the thoughtful activities you plan and the care you put into celebrating special moments. You truly focus on making each experience memorable for your mentee, and it makes a lasting impact.
Thank you for your continued support and for the joy and heart you bring. We are so grateful to you!

This month we're proud to feature Krista in our leadership series. ✨
Krista's work centres around something that defines everything we do at HPCAS: building authentic partnerships that put families at the core of their own success stories.
"One of the most …meaningful parts is guiding families to recognize and build on their own strengths, using natural supports to foster safety and well-being. When we truly put the power back into families' hands, that's when the magic happens."
This approach reflects our deep belief that families are the experts on their own lives. Krista's leadership makes sure our programs create space for families to identify what they need and build on what's already working, because sustainable change happens when people feel empowered, not rescued.
Thank you, Krista, for all you give, and for creating conditions where families can thrive on their own terms. 💚
