the funds
Where the
money goes
The work we do would not be possible without the incredible generosity of our supporters.
The funds from our annual Toque Campaign have benefited 200 Partner Agencies across Canada to-date along with our Reside projects.
Donations made to Raising the Roof go to support our national initiative, Reside. Reside transforms vacant buildings into homes for people who are or may become homeless while training and employing people with barriers to employment, supporting them with Wraparound Supports and connecting them to employers.
