FitzSocial

FitzSocial Welcome! We are a residents group located close to downtown St. Catharines. Join us!

Our goal is to organize social events to build community connection in our neighbourhood. Learning from neighbouring communities in Hamilton, London, Kitchener and beyond, lifelong friends Caleb and Suzanne were inspired to start a neighbourhood association in their own backyards. Starting with an Easter Egg Hunt at Catherine Street Park, the neighbours came together to foster a sense of community

, belonging and safety. Fitzgerald Neighbours is modelling its work off of other asset-based community development initiatives that begin with a neighbourhood's strengths. Building on this foundation, we want to work towards improving every splash pad, park and intersection. Our work is guided by four goals: (1) improve neighbourhood design; (2) increase the health, inclusivity and safety of the neighbourhood; (3) improve social and cultural connections; and (4) strengthen business and economic opportunities.
