Community Sharing for Success

Kawartha Works Community Co-op (KWCC) was formed in 2015 to make it easier to develop community initiatives in the City of Kawartha Lakes.

About us

Making #KawarthaWorks, Work!

The Kawartha Works Community Co-op offers the lower cost and convenience of shared services such as insurance and accounting as well as having an incorporated status to receive grants. We also have a network of members with a variety of community connections of shared information and experience, and potential partnering for projects. The participating initiatives range from family support networking to community consultation, music events, summer and winter festivals, housing planning, canal docking improvements, town beautification, and bike rentals.

Participating Initiatives

Our participating initiatives exist to improve the social, economic, cultural and environmental infrastructure in the Kawartha Lakes.

Community Partnerships

We have partnered with local businesses, foundations, and events in the community to provide even more support across the Kawartha Lakes.

KWCC came out of community improvement discussions conducted by Fenelon Forward. As ideas were identified for improvement initiatives in Fenelon Falls, the need for an umbrella organization to facilitate developments was recognized.
