Connecting Communities, Building Relationships

The Locally Connected Community Hub (LCCHub) began in 2017 as a simple effort to bring neighbours together at a local Bar & Grill. Since then, it has blossomed into the largest and fastest-growing grassroots networking collective in the tri-cities region and Stratford area, with over 2,000 participants. Operating through seven chapters in Waterloo, Woolwich, Kitchener, Cambridge, Guelph, and Stratford, LCCHub creates inclusive spaces where people from all walks of life can connect, share experiences, and build meaningful relationships.

Our mission is to make the communities we serve more inclusive, safe, and welcoming places to live, work, play, and shop. Whether through casual social gatherings, outdoor activities, or networking events, LCCHub makes it easy for entrepreneurs, young professionals, parents, retirees, and everyone in between to feel connected and supported.

LCCHub is also deeply committed to giving back. From food and toy drives to supporting school breakfast programs and Canadian Blood Services, our grassroots initiatives aim to strengthen the community in tangible ways. By fostering relationships and encouraging collaboration, we help individuals, businesses, and neighbourhoods thrive together.

Join us in building a brighter, more connected future. Together, we can make our communities vibrant, welcoming places for everyone to live, work, play, and grow.
