Impact by the Numbers

Every Number is a Neighbour

Behind every number is a name. A story.
A person who walked through our doors not sure what they’d find.

What they found was a meal, a community, and the reminder that they matter.

The Story Behind Every Number

Showers Accessed

1,406

More than a hot shower – a moment to feel human again. To walk into a job interview, a shelter, a doctor’s office with your head held high. Dignity starts somewhere, this is where.

IDs Restored

513

Without ID, you can’t open a bank account, apply for housing, or access benefits. 513 people got their identity back – and with it, the ability to move forward.

Volunteer Hours Given

31,299

Neighbours who showed up. People who have given their days off, their expertise, their presence – because they believe that how we treat our most vulnerable says everything about who we are as a community.

The families coming through our doors are families who never imagined they would.

These aren’t statistics from somewhere else. They are our neighbours – and the numbers show a community that is under real, growing pressure.

2024 Revenue Breakdown

Where our funding comes from – and where individual giving makes the biggest difference

Individual donors are our largest single revenue source — nearly half of everything we do. Growing our base of individual and monthly givers is where new support has the greatest freedom and longevity.

Stories From Our Guests

A Hundred Reasons To Come Back

Some volunteers come because they watched someone they love walk through these doors, and showing up felt like the only thing left to do.

Choice Changes Everything

The Marketplace is where people feel that something is different. Where the transaction isn't a handout. Where the mission isn't written on a wall, it's felt in the way you're greeted at the door.
