You are invited to join us as we relentlessly pursue a vision for the future of Toronto, where homelessness becomes history. We are inviting everyone who lives in the Greater Toronto Area to make this commitment with us. To be part of the Homefull Campaign, all you have to do is read the Homefull Commitment below and Sign & Share with others in your network. Our goal is to have thousands of people join us as we reimagine a complex social challenge. It may be tempting to consider homelessness a challenge too impossible to tackle. But we know that together, a group of compassionate, determined people, is an unstoppable force.
We believe in a Homefull Toronto. A city where homelessness is history, where everyone has access to the transforming power of home and the most vulnerable have the support necessary to flourish, because…
You can be sheltered but hungry, safe but alone, housed but unhealthy, that’s not homefull.
This is your invitation to reject the status quo, redefine expectations, confront stereotypes, and commit to building a Homefull Toronto together.
This is more than wishful thinking.
Homelessness is not an insurmountable challenge. Solutions exist. We know the way forward.
All that’s left is the collective compassionate commitment of a unified community to make this our reality.
For 40 years, Homes First has provided shelter, housing, support, and community for Toronto’s most vulnerable people. We’re more than a charity; we’re a catalyst for change.
We’re committed to a Homefull Toronto. But we can’t get there without you.
If you believe Toronto should be Homefull, make this your commitment too…
Homefull is the word we use to describe having a roof over your head and the support and community you need to truly thrive. Homefullness is the opposite of homelessness. We know the solution to this social challenge is not just to get people housed, it’s to get them housed and then help them access programs, healthcare, a supportive community, and anything else they need to stay housed and move towards a flourishing life. It’s Home + Hope.
You can be housed but hungry.
That is not Homefull.
You can be sheltered but alone.
That is not Homefull.
We want every person in Toronto to experience the transformative power of Home.
