Why support us?

With your help, we can build a more compassionate, more human society.

Imagine a World Where Everyone Belongs!

Since 1983, we have been building a community where everyone belongs. That’s over forty years of friendship, belonging and service.  We have succeeded because of a wider community of friends standing behind us. Supporters volunteer their time or give to enable us to make a difference in the lives of people with intellectual disabilities. To see what we are up to follow us on Facebook and Instagram; just search for @larchecb.

We are proud of our community. We invite you to come and see for yourself all the good things happening in our community.  We would be happy to give you a tour! Just give us a call at (902) 756-3162 to arrange.

You Can Make a Difference

Every gift matters. Thanks to the support of our donors, people with intellectual disabilities are sharing their gifts to create inclusive neighbourhoods, vibrant places of work and artistry, and communities of belonging that inspire and encourage social change. Together, we can build a more compassionate society.
