Mackie’s Place Youth Social House Society exists to help youth build life skills and supportive relationships so they can grow and flourish. The organization aims to bridge diverse communities, break down barriers, broaden perspectives, build new opportunities, and help young people find belonging. Their mission is driven by radical love and a vision where at-risk youth can become healthy individuals with strong connections and hope-filled futures.

Mackie’s Place operates in Surrey, British Columbia. All core programming, volunteer opportunities, and events are based in this community. The organization serves local at-risk youth and works closely with families and residents in Surrey to create lasting relationships and support systems.

Key programs at Mackie’s Place focus on providing youth with access to meals, job and life skills training, and personal support. Youth can participate in chef and barista programs, a cleaning crew, and job readiness workshops, all designed to give real-world skills and employment experience. The organization also fosters mentorship and peer support, organizes shared meals, and offers a safe, welcoming environment for youth to connect and receive guidance. Programs such as the Mackie’s Pie Club let youth practice culinary skills while building confidence and belonging.
