Hello Mount Pleasant!
As February arrives, we’re excited to continue celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Mount Pleasant Community Association! Since 1950, MPCA has been at the heart of our neighbourhood, fostering connections and making Mount Pleasant a wonderful place to live.
This milestone wouldn’t be possible without the dedication of our volunteers, members, and neighbours. Thank you for everything you do to support our vibrant community!
Looking ahead, we’re inviting more residents to join us in shaping the future of Mount Pleasant. We currently have several exciting volunteer opportunities available:
• The Secretary is a vital member of our Executive Board of Directors, serving a two-year term. Responsibilities include recording accurate minutes of meetings, maintaining Member records, managing Board correspondence, and ensuring timely filing of documents as required by the Societies Act. If you’re organized, detail-oriented, and passionate about community service, this is your chance to make a meaningful contribution.
• The Assistant Hall Director will shadow the current Hall Director for the next year, gaining hands-on experience in managing daily operations, assisting with budgeting and financial management, overseeing Hall maintenance, and collaborating with the Grants Coordinator on funding applications. This role transitions into the Hall Director position in October 2025, providing a unique opportunity to take on a leadership role in our community.
• The Grants Coordinator plays an essential role in securing funding for MPCA programs and initiatives. In this position, you’ll match programs with grant opportunities, write grant applications and proposed budgets, provide updates to the Board, and complete grant reporting. This is a great fit for someone detail-oriented, skilled in writing, and passionate about enhancing community life. Your efforts will directly support vibrant programming and facilities for our neighbourhood.
Whether you’re ready to take on a full-time role or contribute your skills in other ways, we’d love to have you join our team. Not ready for a long-term commitment? That’s okay too. If you have ideas or want to lend a hand, reach out to us at [email protected].
We’re excited to celebrate this anniversary year with you through events, activities, and programs that honour Mount Pleasant’s past, present, and future. Stay tuned for more details, and let’s make 2025 a year to remember!
