Registered charity number: 832858377RR0001
Hope Blooms is a registered charity situated in a low socio-economic community in the North End of Halifax that has experienced generations of racialized poverty, and is considered a food desert. Collaboratively, we create innovative youth-driven impact in food security, social inclusion, education, and environmental stewardship within the high-needs community the youth live in. Since 2008, Hope Blooms has provided a safe space for youth to grow their own food, start youth-led social enterprises, build a 10,000 square foot urban farm, while mentoring over 100 families, including new immigrants, newcomers as well long standing African Nova Scotia community residents. We have collaboratively built an award-winning off-the-grid greenhouse (designed by one of our youth leaders), and operate a "Global Kitchen for Social Change" where programs take place.
