St. Jamestown is Canada's most dynamic and diverse neighbourhood. Known as a gateway community, 64% of these residents are New Canadians from 90 countries speaking over 120 languages. However, the United Way of Greater Toronto has labeled this community of promise a very high poverty neighbourhood. Housing, food security and personal safety are a daily concern for many of these community neighbours. Over 43% of these families live on less than $20,000/year. At City Hope our mission is to develop people of influence by building genuine relationships, instilling moral values, modeling good citizenship, and teaching transformational skills that create change within our community and world. City Hope seeks to provide programming to children, youth and adults. KNX (Connects) is our Youth Leadership Program.
