DONATE NOW

Donations to Sorrento Centre, a Canadian charity, are vital to our dynamic programming and allow us to continue in our role as an engaging community hub.
We simply can’t do this important work without you.

The Sorrento Centre is on the traditional and unceded lands of the Secwépemc First Nation. Since time immemorial, the Secwepemc people have practiced virtues of harmony and generosity. We are so grateful to be welcomed as their uninvited guests.
