They’re measured by the strength of their hearts.

Thanks to your leadership and heroic heart, thousands of people experiencing homelessness and poverty were nourished, sheltered and protected during one of the greatest challenges of our time — the COVID-19 pandemic. Now it’s time to heal, build strength, and move forward.

We're thankful for heroes like you

Your extraordinary support allows us to provide the four-pillar, wrap-around supports that transform thousands of lives — our clients’ countless success stories are living proof.

Heroes

Together, we can provide:

HEALTH AND WELL-BEING:

YOUR SUPPORT WILL:
Provide a safe place for vulnerable people to access the physical and mental health services they need, as well as help navigating the health care system. By removing the barriers to accessing care, people can reclaim their health, build strength and move forward with their lives

“I was really down in the dumps. But it’s coming along good now. I did it all by myself.”

– Brian, Mustard Seed client

4,500+ health and wellness services provided monthly

SPIRITUAL AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT:

YOUR SUPPORT WILL:
Provide social, spiritual, and emotional support for people who far too often struggle alone. You’ll provide a caring community to people who are hurting, and help our counsellors and Chaplains provide the support and guidance they need to heal and feel hope for the future again.

“This is my community. Without them I wouldn’t have the love in me that I do today.”

– Jay, Mustard Seed client

SHELTER AND HOUSING:

YOUR SUPPORT WILL:
Help people find housing options that best fit their needs at the point they’re at on their journey — from emergency shelters offering a safe, warm place to sleep on a cold winter night, to permanent, supportive housing providing a range of services to residents to foster independence and personal growth.

“They put a roof over my head at night, I have a safe place to sleep. I would not have survived if it weren’t for The Mustard Seed.”

– Shawn, Mustard Seed client

385+ people were moved off the streets into affordable housing in 2020

TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT:

YOUR SUPPORT WILL:
Help people find permanent and meaningful employment that puts them on a path to stability and self-reliance. Services include skills development, resume building, job coaching and mentoring, and access to work attire and proper protective equipment. We also partner with employers in the community to provide opportunities to clients.

“So far it’s been amazing. I have stability in my life, I sleep better. I feel like I can be a professional again.”

– Shawn, Mustard Seed client
