Since 1971, Terra – Centre for pregnant and parenting teens empowers teen parents to be successful in all areas of life. But the important work we do would not be possible without the generosity and compassion of people in our community.

As a registered charity in Canada, Terra supports more than 600 young families each year. With the support of the community Terra is able to provide innovative programs and services. Your financial contribution to support young families is gratefully appreciated.
