UPDATE - Placentia Welcome Centre Inc.
We recently changed our corporation’s name to better reflect our evolving role and activities within the community. We are no longer associated with a parish or the archdiocese. We now operate independently as a registered charity, with a mandate focused entirely on community service, inclusion, and engagement.
Chase the Ace is here at Branch 33!
Help the Placentia Welcome Centre Inc. raise the roof literally! We are launching a Chase the Ace fundraiser to support essential renovations, including a new roof and a fresh coat of exterior paint for our building.
Every Sunday evening at the Royal Canadian Legion at 5:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. Come Support Us!
