With campaigns like Toque Tuesday, Raising the Roof raises and allocates funds for community agencies who are working to alleviate homelessness across Canada. Our focus is on prevention and long-term solutions. Raising the Roof partners with agencies who provide people with information, resources, services, programs and projects that help them move from homelessness to homes, and that assist people who are at risk of losing their housing to stay housed and off the path to homelessness.

	Each year through our Toque Campaign Raising the Roof provides financial support to front line agencies that are finding solutions for Canada's homeless. Read more about Solutions in Action, for stories from those agencies making a difference. Make a donation to Raising the Roof
