And what’s more is that donations will be matched up to $50,000! Donate now.

Ward 5 fosters a North End community where individuals feel connected, supported and empowered by providing inclusive programs and services.

Ward 5 Neighbourhood Centre is a charitable, non-profit organization located on Russell Street in Halifax.

We operate out of Saint Mark’s Church community hall, and have been providing programs and services for the past 50 years. 

Ward 5 provides a wide range of programs for children and families, such as: Before and After School children’s care, March Break Camp, and Summer Camps.

The Centre also provides meals and programming for seniors.  The senior’s meal program has transitioned to a meal delivery service due to COVID-19 Pandemic restrictions.  We currently deliver 30 meals for seniors on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.  For more information on our meal program, please call the Centre at 902-454-0019.  

We also provide additional programs and events for seniors, such as community bingos, an income tax clinic, and other onsite programming.

Ward 5 also supports the community through various events, such as community dinners, a summer block party, community dances, and a Christmas party for families, to name a few!
