Mackie's Place

Mackie’s Place offers a safe space and resources to our youths most at risk. They offer a place where youth can come and learn valuable life and working skills. Some of those skills are learned in their industrial kitchen, making culinary meals and top-notch baking for the Pie Club, and in their cafe, learning barista skills.

MP operates out of multiple locations throughout the week. Drop-in nights on Mondays at Cedar Grove Church, their headquarters, and more!

3. Pie Club drivers deliver freshly-baked pies to the Pie Club members once per month. Deliveries take place on designated routes throughout the Lower Mainland on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Fridays.
4. Special Events: Annual Graduation Celebration, Youth Christmas Dinner, and Garden Party fundraiser
5. Community Coffee volunteers support the Barista Skills Program graduates during their shifts (Wednesday and Thursday mornings).
