Join us on our first annual walkathon on October 29, 2023 at 11:30AM-2:00PM!
Street Haven’s Walking Home is a family-friendly walkathon to raise money and bring awareness to homeless women in Toronto, and support our essential services.
Street Haven is a multi-service women’s agency that provides shelter, supported housing, addiction treatment, and training support services for high-risk vulnerable, and homeless women in Toronto. We have the distinction of establishing Canada’s first women’s shelter services and have served tens of thousands of marginalized women in its 58-year history. We will be joined by Members of Provincial Parliament Jess Bell (University Rosedale) and Kristyn Wong-Tam (Toronto-Centre) and Councillor Chris Moise (Toronto-Centre).
Through our essential services, we enable women towards greater independence and success:
-Serve 100,000 healthy and hot meals annually.
-Provide 27,375 nights of safe, warm, and clean shelter beds to homeless women annually.
-We provide social services and housing counseling to help women to find more secure forms of affordable housing annually.
-Treat over 60 women with addiction challenges annually.
-We provide training services in financial literacy, life skills, and employment to over 100 women annually.
-We help house over 65 women.
