Garry Vath
Parent
As parents we are concerned about where our son will live when we can no longer care for him. We are excited that Kwas House will provide an opportunity for him to live in his community in safe and affordable housing.
Crystal Wiebe
Developer
Developing community-based housing consists of three basic steps: dream, plan and build. Ideas are common, but having courage to act is where success begins. FISH has created vital, passionate momentum, and I believe Kwas House will become as a reality.
Vikki Topping
Architect
The modernly designed Kwas House project allows an individual to be independent with the support of the community within the facility, providing learning opportunities and life skills within the comfort of their own space utilizing community gardens, teaching kitchen and outdoor living spaces.
