The Upper Hammonds Plains Community Development Association owns and operates the Upper Hammonds Plains Community Centre for all residents, businesses and organizations in the greater Upper Hammonds Plains, NS area to enjoy – with the primary focus to provide programs and services for the benefit of the African Nova Scotian residents of Upper Hammonds Plains as we work together and stand on the shoulders of our ancestors to preserve, strengthen and build the African Nova Scotian community of Upper Hammonds Plains.

Revenues from facility and sign rentals help to support the building fund, annual operating costs of the facility, community activities and events for youth and seniors.

The UHPCDA was incorporated with the province – September 28, 1970 and has been proudly serving its community ever since. Key community involvement has included the Upper Hammonds Plains Community Cemetery, Upper Hammonds Plains Volunteer Fire Department, Upper Hammonds Plains Melvin Land Tract Protection Society, and partnering with Emmanuel Baptist Church.
