Our Mission
At Ayr and District Citizens Association, everyone deserves a safe and affordable place to call home. That's why we are dedicated to providing high-quality non-profit housing options for low-income and vulnerable populations in our community.
We work tirelessly to secure funding and resources to build and renovate housing units, and we are committed to providing support services that help our residents thrive. By creating a foundation of stable housing, we hope to empower our neighbours to build better lives and contribute to the vitality of our community.
