The Joyce Foundation Invests in Strong Foundations

For over 20 years The Joyce Foundation has been dedicated to supporting the social, economic and emotional well-being of youth by empowering them to develop into healthy, confident, independent contributors to society. With this mission at the forefront, a partnership with Phoenix was a natural fit.

An incredibly generous investment of $20,000 from The Joyce Foundation was received this past November. It has been instrumental to the sustainability of innovative programming taking place throughout Phoenix, including Phoenix Centre for Youth, Phoenix Youth & Family Therapy, Phoenix Youth & Community Centre and Phoenix Learning and Employment Centre. These programs provide opportunities for youth to develop individualized plans for success and access to services focused on personal development and capacity building.

“The Joyce Foundation is pleased to support Phoenix’s youth programs as a vital organization in the community. ‘Because Youth Matter’ is not only the vision at Phoenix, but it is also their blueprint for action. Phoenix creates spaces and opportunities for youth, their families and their communities to build on strengths.” says Ron Joyce, C.M., Advisor Trustee of The Joyce Foundation.

We are beyond grateful that The Joyce Foundation shares the same values and beliefs as we do to create opportunities that allow youth to help themselves.
