As a non-profit organization, we rely on generous donations for the sustainability of our community programs. These donations go back in to the programs to cover costs such as certified yoga instructor fees, adding additional specialty classes and updating equipment to ensure that the space and programs are as accessible as possible.

Donations can be made online, by cash or cheque (made out to CHCN or Community Health Centres of Northumberland). Cash and cheque donations can be submitted to our front reception. To donate online, CLICK HERE. Just click "MAKE A DONATION" and select "Exercise Programming" from the drop down menu.

Please remember donations (while very much appreciated) are NOT mandatory. We never want finances to be a reason that someone cannot participate in our programming.
