Brunswick Street Mission

Thanks to the incredible Sam Young (Sam Young 🙋🏻‍♂️💯🤠) for creating this beautiful representation of our community.

We’ve served North End Halifax for almost 100 years and have always opened our doors to anyone and everyone. Sam spent the summer here as a Canada Summer Jobs employee, learning about us and our community while serving in our café and front reception.

We envision a thriving community. Every day, Sam would add another piece of our vision to his drawing. This is a picture of where we are now and where we want to be.

We’re so glad to be here serving, supporting, and joining our neighbours, ensuring dignity to everyone who walks through our doors.
