What does home mean to you?

Home is one of the most powerful of human concepts.

 
Home evokes feelings of warmth and comfort

    ... the love of family and friends

        ... safety, security

            ... the expression of personal creativity

                ... a sense of belonging.

Tragically, for thousands of Canadians, home is a distant memory or an impossible dream.

They are the poor, victims of domestic abuse, the mentally and physically disabled. Some live on the street, some in group shelters. Others live in substandard housing or in whatever space family or friends can share.

An estimated one in three are young people between 16 and 24, who should be finishing their education and starting their careers. Thousands are younger children whose chances to learn and grow into happy, productive adults are seriously hampered by their homelessness.

Your donation can change this. By getting the homeless off the streets. By funding shelters. By financing the construction of affordable housing.

You know what home means to you. Share that warmth and comfort by giving today.

Help bring the homeless home.
