Our Mission

Helping Hands International has teamed up with Urban Rez Solutions Social Enterprise to mobilize the support we offer to those affected by marginalization. 

For 20 years, Urban Rez Solutions has served marginalized and racialized communities by providing resources and engaging in projects to uplift Canada’s local community members. Their organization has worked on projects committed to ensuring that vulnerable people can excel in a society that is supportive of their growth and self-esteem. Urban Rez Solutions’ commitment to the pro-social development of communities leads their organization to offer outreach services and workshops with the Toronto District School Board, Toronto Police Service, and other institutions.

Distance and affordability can make resources and opportunities less accessible to underrepresented members of our society. This summer 2021, we want to raise $75,000 to make tutoring, counselling, conflict resolution coaching, pro-social engagement and other services more accessible to Ontario’s marginalized youth. With your help, we can make this possible by equipping the Urban Rez Mobile Unit with what it needs to put outreach services on wheels and bring them right to the community doorstep. 

You can play a role in making a difference in the lives of many local and national youth when you donate to the Driving For Change Community Campaign or send an in-kind gift to support the initiative.

Here is what your contribution can do: 

Increase youth creative collaboration & interpersonal relationships

•       Access to audio/visual mobile studio
•       Access to an esports gaming area
•       Access to a common area
•       Access to Wi-Fi

Provide mobile unit requirements

•        A parking permit, lighting, electrical, maintenance
•       Secure storage space, mobile security system, window tinting

Your support is crucial to the success of our efforts in the community.  

As a thank you,  We can offer tax receipts for a minimum of $1,000 private donations. Helping Hands International would like to share organizations’ charitable support with the community by providing a space to put their logo on our Mobile Unit. Please contact us for more details.
