ABOUT HUMMINGBIRD HUB
Hummingbird Hub is a non-profit organization providing a home to community-based organizations, initiatives, and support networks. We are working on developing programs to help fill some of the gaps in Stouffville, to build lasting social change in our fast-growing community.
From securing warm shelter and meals for the homeless and hungry (leading to the creation of a formal food security program and community garden) to establishing a STEAM program for Stouffville and educational supports for kids struggling with the new virtual landscape of education, to providing an affordable and accessible pop-up space for local crafters and incubating numerous new business initiatives, artisans and vendors, from kickstarting a direct and low-cost delivery program for local restaurants and merchants, and to ensuring seniors suffering from isolation felt acknowledged and loved during the holidays, we’ve spent all of the past few years immersing our efforts into the immediate needs of Stouffville.
