about us
we are a community from all walks of life, created in the image of God, pursuing the hope of Jesus, where the vulnerable are held at our center.
We exist to seek God, pursue truth, in an atmosphere of love,
where judgement is left at the door.
despite the apparent affluence of our city, many people living in kelowna are experiencing homelessness or are at risk of being homeless.

As a community, Metro is committed to working alongside the City of Kelowna and numerous other agencies to help some of the most vulnerable among us

our team
We have an amazing, (if slightly mad) bunch who make it their business to serve and love our community! Some are full time, some are part-time, but we are most certainly - a team!

Getting involved with Metro can be as easy as a clothing donation or as involved as a regular volunteer position. In either case, we are excited to have your partnership and support.
