Funds raised will support two YMCA programs that actively combat homelessness for men and youth.
Located at the Hamilton Downtown Family YMCA, the Men's Residence provides clean, safe and affordable transitional housing for more than 175 men in Hamilton's urban core. The YMCA Men’s Residence supports men at risk, many facing both health and social challenges.
In Burlington, our Youth in Transition program is helping to support youth ages of 16 – 24 identify, develop and implement a personal plan based on their own goals for personal independence. The Y helps navigate the adult service systems and connects youth to relevant support and resources in the community that can help them find: a place to stay, full or part-time work or job training, life skills, emotional support and their own community.
