Why Support?

As a resident of Ritchie, you already know: it rocks! Whether it’s the close proximity to Edmonton’s Strathcona and Downtown districts, the Mill Creek Ravine, or the wonderful schools, parks and businesses, there’s something for everyone. RCL strives to provide facilities and programming for people of all ages.

Welcome to Ritchie, 72 Ave

Welcome to Ritchie, 72 Ave

However, recent global events have severely impacted the League’s ability to generate sustainable revenue, impacting both our short-term and long-term projects. Whether it’s new innovative and inclusive programs/events, or the maintenance and revitalization of our facilities, we need your support.

Starting January 2021, we hope our community members find the value in supporting the league on a continual basis. With different subscription tiers, we hope there is a financial support level for most, and in return, each tier provides interesting and unique merchandise and experiences.

Every supporter that resides in Ritchie receives an annual community league membership (which by itself brings many benefits), as well as an exclusive discount card, which can be used at many generous Ritchie and area local businesses.

To our knowledge, no other community league in Edmonton has attempted to start a program like this. We believe it’s creative, unique and an affordable way to grow and support all that we do, while spreading a little Ritchie pride along the way. If you agree, we ask that you take the leap and join the crew; together we can make sure Ritchie continues to rock.
