Today, we stood before West Kelowna City Council and talked about our vision for a Foundry site on the Westside and celebrated a major milestone in our Not Alone: Bridging the Gap Campaign - securing a location for the future Foundry site.
The site will be located at #105 – 2370 Bering Rd. in Westbank, and we are excited for what this will mean for a young person struggling with their mental health, a parent trying to find support, or a family navigating challenges alone.
The Council's response gave us a lot of us hope.
Council voiced its support. Community leaders recognized the need. And Mayor Gord Milsom had a message for residents and businesses:
"Please, to our residents and our businesses, support this cause. It's really important to our youth."
That support matters because this isn't just about securing a location. It's about building it out, bringing in staff and welcoming young people into a place where they can find help, connection and hope closer to home.
The momentum is building. The vision is becoming real. And together, we can help ensure young people and families on the Westside are not alone.
Every donation moves the opening date closer.
