Can you help us??
Pepsi has decided to give away a heap of cash, and Storefront has been selected as one of only 300 projects from across the country to participate in the contest!
Storefront’s Community Design Initiative is a building project engaging youth to design an 8,000 square foot building in one of Canada’s most marginalized neighborhoods. The students, ranging from the ages of 9-21, have just finished 6 months of design education and now as we have a design, we’re embarking on a $4 million capital campaign to see this project realized. The Pepsi refresh money will be used to build the new commercial-grade kitchen which will enable more cooking and nutrition programs to run as well as construct and upgrade the computer resource area – both areas that community groups and individuals use on a daily basis.
