In this episode we explore the origins of the success story that is The Mount Community Centre, in Peterborough, Ontario.

The Mount’s Chair Steve Kylie, Vice Chair John Martyn and Director of Strategic Advancement Andi van Koeverden share how a group of dreamers and volunteers transformed $25,000 in the Poverty Reduction Network’s bank account into a vibrant,  10 acre and $135,00 square foot community treasure focused on food security and affordable housing.  Our guests share how the Mount came to be, and the innovative funding models used to acquire, convert and sustain it.
