Our current initiatives
Encouraging global change that starts in our own backyards
The Kin Youth is a youth-driven group whose voices are part of setting the direction in the short and long term within our community of North Perth and beyond. That means they take the lead in deciding what events they host and what causes they will support.
Stay tuned for upcoming events that you can help them support!

What it means to be part of the Kin Youth - Youth Supporting Youth
Building the stepping stones of Listowel’s future generations.
The Kin Cares Youth Group is a service organization for grade 6-9 youth who have a desire to make a difference in their community and have shared experiences with like-minded citizens. Kin Cares is run by the Kinsmen and Kinettes Club of Listowel.
Kin Cares works to organize, volunteer, and fundraise for opportunities to engage youth. At the same time, we take time to get to know each other and have fun at our meetings and other group events.
Under the leadership of elementary school teachers, Tyler Schaefer and Jill Fowler, the Kin Youth members will build their social skills, responsibility, and citizenship all while being part of a longer legacy of impact in our community.
What to expect as a Kin Youth member
Engaging in activities, food, and helping others.
Meetings are held on the 1st and/or 2nd Tuesday of every month from 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm. Members get to enjoy fun activities, plan events, and enjoy pizza (provided by our sponsor, Don Hamilton Real Estate).
Every meeting is supervised by two Kinsmen or Kinette leaders to guide and support the members. These leaders have undergone a screening process to ensure your children’s safety.
Safety and Care is our number one priority.
Kin Youth members are expected to behave as they would in school, in a respectful manner that follows the school code of conduct. We encourage members to attend as many meetings as they can and kindly ask to be informed when they are not able to attend. This helps us to ensure the utmost safety of our community youth is met at all times.
