Our 
Story

       Joyful Noise Inc. is everything good in life. Located in Edmonton, Alberta, founded in 2023 by second generation African and Caribbean Canadian couple Bert & Karen Richards. Joyful Noise aims to provide safe space for families to gather, find strength in  heritage, exchange ideas and connect or check in with one another.

       Bert's background is in Event Planning and Entertainment. Karen is a Social Worker (MSW, RSW) with a Bachelors in Science of Psychology, and a certified Mental Health First Aid Facilitator. The couple has a combined 50 years of community volunteering and facilitation of programs. Joyful Noise recontextualizes tested and rewarding programs that deliver positive connections.  

"Without healthy families we don’t have healthy community."
