Creating a World that Works for Everyone
At CSL Kelowna we believe being in service to inspire our community contributes to the greater good, so we all benefit.
We celebrate diversity and uniqueness as the divine expresses itself through and as each individual. As we gather together with love and laughter, we support each other in stepping into our potential.
As a self-sustaining non-profit, we believe that as we give, so we receive. This is an active principle in our community, which means that collectively we give back in various ways to those within the City of Kelowna, and beyond.

CSL Kelowna Extends its Reach to Africa

As we come together as one with new friends across the globe, we remember that we really are one global community!
