Backgrounder / GOV-Q10-WAVE1-d1 / 2026-08-04 / registry row: tor-eastview-neighbourhood-community-centre (this library's government-document registry) / lens file for this org's series briefs

Mandate & statutory basis

Eastview Neighbourhood Community Centre describes itself as "A City of Toronto Agency" (https://www.eastviewcentre.com/, fetched this review) and is one of ten member centres of the City's Association of Community Centres (AOCC) - City-owned or City-managed facilities governed by independent volunteer Boards of Management under the City of Toronto Act, 2006, the former City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 25, and a Council-approved Relationship Framework (https://www.toronto.ca/community-people/get-involved/get-involved-my-community/association-of-community-centres/, fetched this review).

Roles, responsibilities & scope

Operates from 86 Blake St, Toronto, delivering six program streams: Family Resources, Newcomers (including settlement/integration programming), General Programs, Children & Youth, Seniors, and Food Access (https://www.eastviewcentre.com/, fetched this review). It is a BGC Canada affiliate and a registered charity (Charitable #89044 7675 RR0001). Funding is split by function across the AOCC: "the core administrative activities of the community centres are funded by the City of Toronto while the program component is funded by the AOCC through various revenue sources, such as grants, donations, and fees" (https://www.eastviewcentre.com/about, fetched this review).

Governance & reporting line

Governed by a volunteer Board of Management of 12 members, comprising a Board Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary, nine further directors, and the local City Councillor as a member (https://www.eastviewcentre.com/board-of-directors, fetched this review; officeholder names omitted per house style - roles only). Monthly public board meetings are generally held the third Monday of the month, with no meetings in July or August (same source). ⚠️ still being checked the formal appointment/election process for community-elected board seats - not detailed on the org's own site this review.

Budget scale

The Centre files audited financial statements annually with the City's Audit Committee (registry doc shelf, registry id tor-eastview-neighbourhood-community-centre). The most recently registered filing - the 2024 Audited Financial Statements report (https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2025/au/bgrd/backgroundfile-256790.pdf, fetched and parsed this review) - is the Auditor General's four-page cover report only; the per-centre financial-statement attachment (Attachment 5, "Eastview Neighbourhood Community Centre") that would carry specific revenue/expense figures is not separately captured as its own URL in the registry. ⚠️ still being checked specific dollar figures for this centre - not confirmed this review.

Institutional history

The Centre's own site brands itself "Fostering Community Since 1972" (https://www.eastviewcentre.com/, fetched this review), indicating more than five decades of continuous operation. ⚠️ still being checked further founding narrative beyond this tagline (e.g. founding organization, original location) - not found on the org's own site or in registered documents this review.
