The Riverdale Hub is a social enterprise that offers an innovative and affordable green work environment to progressive organizations and individuals. In these shared spaces, the Hub works to provide placement opportunities and training to immigrant, refugee, and marginalized women and youth - creating a bridge between minority groups and mainstream communities. We work within the values of inclusiveness, sustainability, and social justice.
The Riverdale Hub’s mission is to create a vibrant community organization that respects and balances the social, economic, and environmental needs of its community. More specifically, the Hub pursues the following four primary objectives.
First, we aim to provide quality space for programming and entrepreneurial approaches that enable marginalized persons to develop sustainable livelihoods and achieve financial self-sufficiency. Secondly, we contribute to the creation of quality programming that supports marginalized persons and their families as they take greater control of their lives. Thirdly, we sustain the aforementioned programming through sounds financial management and development of equity within the building. Finally, we minimize our environmental footprint and model sustainability on all levels to other organizations within Toronto and families within our community.
