The Marguerite Centre is looking for Board members!



The Centre is a volunteer-run organization providing an inclusive, safe, and tranquil setting for women recovering from addiction, regardless of economic status. As well as fostering a sense of community support, together with their volunteers, they give the residents a sense of value, purpose and resiliency.



The Board advises, governs, oversees policy and direction, and assists with the leadership and general promotion of The Marguerite Centre to support the organization's mission and needs.

If you are passionate about supporting women in recovery and would like to make a difference in community, contact them today by reaching out to the Board Chair:
