Let’s shut the door to chronic homelessness.
This holiday, your donation to United Way East Ontario ensures young people facing homelessness have access to life-changing resources that set them up for a brighter future.

Without a roof over your head, it’s nearly impossible to take care of your mental health, get a good job, or plan for the future.
Your support will:
- Provide education, life, and work skills programs for youth experiencing—or at risk of—homelessness.
- Enable advocacy and partnerships that drive the pursuit of more affordable, safe housing.
- Help people stay connected to counsellors, mentors, and vital social services.
- Increase mental health and substance use counselling for youth and their families, including those facing homelessness.

Your gift will be DOUBLED until December 31.
Thanks to our generous sponsor TD, holiday donations will be matched* to fuel measurable, lasting change.
