DIRECTIONS TO THE SHELTER |
30:30 Anniversary Fundraiser
While the experience of homelessness in shelter is difficult at any time, children 15 and under find it especially challenging. Research has shown that these children are less likely to excel in school and are more likely to express poor mental health and behavioural issues as they grow up, thus increasing their risk of homelessness in adulthood.
To address this harsh reality, we’re bringing forth a new initiative, Patsy’s Place, which aims to support children experiencing homelessness with supportive, educational, and recreational programming.
Help us make Patsy’s Place a reality! We’ve set a goal of raising $30,000 in order to create sustainable change in the lives of children and their families experiencing homelessness.
