Montreal and the West Island
Building bridges. Restoring hope. Changing lives.
We bring hope, compassion and life-changing support to vulnerable teenagers and young adults up to the age of 25 throughout Montreal, including the West Island and surrounding communities.
Our mission
Every young person deserves hope
We are dedicated to helping young people facing homelessness, mental health challenges, addiction, exploitation, poverty and other difficult life circumstances.
We believe that every young person deserves to feel safe, valued, heard and supported, regardless of their circumstances or the challenges they have faced. Our goal is not simply to provide temporary relief, but to restore dignity, create opportunities, build lasting connections, and empower young people to move toward a brighter, healthier and more hopeful future.
How we help
Bridging the gap between hardship and hope
These are the areas we are building. We are a new initiative, and we will say clearly which ones are running as each one begins.
Essential care packages
Everyday essentials, put together with care and given with respect.
Access to counselling
Helping young people reach counselling and mental health support.
Addiction recovery resources
Connecting young people with recovery programs and people who understand.
Housing support
Helping young people find and reach safe housing services.
Community partnerships
Working with established organisations so that no one has to face their struggles alone.
In loving memory of Mary and Eddie
Founded in loving memory of Mary and Eddie, whose lives continue to inspire our purpose. Our organisation is built on the belief that compassion can change lives and that no one should have to face their struggles alone.
Our first goal
100 care packages
This is a goal we are working towards, not a result. We will report honestly on what we deliver.
Transparency
Trust needs proof, not promises
As we begin operating, we will publish clear, simple records so every supporter can see where their contribution went.
What was purchased
Item summaries for the care packages we put together.
What was delivered
How many packages went out, and when.
Where funds went
Simple totals showing how contributions were used.
What we learned
What helped, what did not, and what we are changing. If we fall short of a goal, we will say so.
Because every young person deserves hope
Every life matters, and every story deserves to be heard. Join us as a supporter, volunteer or partner.
