Peace-building happens in our neighbourhoods, schools, workplaces, community spaces and around kitchen tables.

It can look like inclusion.
It can look like advocacy.
It can look like creating a safe place to belong.
It can look like helping others be heard.

YMCA Peace Week is our chance to recognize people making this kind of impact across Southwestern Ontario. You don’t need to know someone personally to nominate them; if you’re aware of their work and appreciate the difference they’re making, we want to hear about them.

Submit your nomination ➡️ https://www.ymcaswo.ca/ymca-peace-week

Don't forget - July 9-July 26th 2026, you can add just $2 to your grocery bill at any participating Zehrs locations to help support newcomers in our community.

Everyone deserves the chance to live, learn, and grow in a space where they feel safe, supported, and inspired. At the Y, people build confidence, independence, and lasting friendships. They gain new skills, discover their new home, and experience the joy of belonging to a vibrant community.

Your $2 can spark a lifetime of memories and help a newcomer move from surviving to thriving.
