Let’s make Calgary a moveable feast

Calgary Social Capital Society (CSCS) is a nonprofit organization started by Dr. Arthur Clark. The Society strives to unite the people of Calgary in a community worth being labeled a moveable feast through social gatherings and games, as well as financial support, that build community and social capital to improve quality of life.

Become a Member

Membership is more than joining a society — it’s an invitation to strengthen your social fabric, exchange ideas, and build relationships that matter. With just $5 a month, you’re stepping into a community that invests in personal growth, collective well-being, and meaningful connections.

Dialogue and Social Events

From evenings of dialogue to foraging walks, from poetry readings to music nights — our gatherings are designed to spark conversation, build trust, and deepen community ties. Come curious, leave connected.

Interest Free Loans

Small financial hurdles shouldn’t stop good people from doing good work. Our interest-free loans help members move past challenges and focus on what matters most — creating, contributing, and building community together.

Who
we are

At the Calgary Social Capital Society (CSCS), we believe that connection changes everything. When people come together in trust, creativity, and cooperation, society itself can be transformed. Our vision is a Calgary where people don’t just cross paths, but truly connect — where friendships are forged, ideas are shared, and collective action makes life better for everyone.

Through vibrant social events — from dialogue circles and creative workshops to music, poetry, and shared meals — we create spaces that spark joy and belonging. These moments of connection ripple outward, cultivating trust, resilience, and a culture of care.

Membership is more than a doorway into these experiences. It’s a commitment to one another. With our unique model, members can access to interest-free loans that ease life’s burdens and empower personal or community projects — whether that’s building a greenhouse, pursuing education, or supporting a family in need.

At our core, we are a community that believes empathy is power, cooperation is progress, and togetherness is the path to a better world. By acting locally with a global perspective, we aim to close the gaps of disconnection and materialism — showing that when people unite, hope grows, and a thriving community can light the way for broader change.
