My Story…
Hello Friends and Family! Thank you all for taking the time to consider my request for support. This is my first year riding with Gear Up For Housing and I’m super pumped! As I watched the stories of overcrowded shelters and inadequate warming centres on the news this past winter, I knew I wanted to do something that would make a real, tangible difference in people’s lives. When a friend told me about St. Clare’s efforts to house the most vulnerable in our city, and their GU4H bike ride, I knew I had found my answer. I’m riding this year to help end homelessness one person at a time. A big thanks to everyone supporting me! Hugo
Description
Please help me grease the wheels! I’m cycling around Toronto to help end homelessness.
St. Clare’s is an innovative non-profit organization that uses a unique housing model that serves as an avenue into housing for people who chronically struggle with homelessness. And they're more than a social justice landlord. Since 1998, St. Clare's has established 762 affordable housing units in 7 of Toronto's downtown neighbourhoods. Every donation to Gear Up for Housing goes directly to St. Clare's development activities to establish much-needed, deeply affordable housing.This year, all funds raised will go towards the building of 25 new units of housing alongside their existing building at 1120 Ossington Ave.
Please consider sponsoring my ride with a donation. All donations receive a tax receipt. Any amount, no matter how small, helps us move closer to ending homelessness.
