The Roseto Valfortore Cultural Centre has been in existence for over 49 years and is recognized as an integral part of the Italian community in both Toronto and Mississauga, and as far reaching as their hometown in Italy.
In Ontario it has established scholarship programs: two with the University of Toronto, in the Italian language studies and one annual scholarship administered internally by the club.
The members sponsor and assist in fund raising for many charitable agencies. They continue to promote and maintain the values and tradition s of the Italian heritage.
In keeping with this initiative and to enhance the speaking of the
Italian language, every Saturday Italian language classes are held for
school age children 5-14 years of age at the center. In addition to the lessons, there is a Children's Christmas party. The two pictures below were taken Haloween 2015, where the kids got dressed up and had a party along with their lesson

Instead of the Tesseramento dinner dance, historically held in February, we now offer one free dinner per person during the year, to be selected by the member. This has allowed members who for whatever reason cannot make the February dinner to join us at another event.
