Thank you!

Because of the amazing partnerships House of Friendship has with local government and community organizations, thousands of individuals and families receive the help they need every year.

Without this support, we would be unable to provide food, shelter, community resources, or addiction treatment. Thank you for working together with us in our shared mission to build a community where everyone can belong and thrive.

Kitchener-Conestoga Rotary Club

Every year, House of Friendship is able to provide gift cards and turkeys to 12,000 individuals living on low income, providing them with a special holiday meal. This program is made possible becauseĀ of the efforts of the Kitchener-Conestoga Rotary Club, which supports Christmas Hampers with its annual Rotary Turkey Drive. To date, more than $4 million has been raised in support of Christmas Hampers. Thank you!

 

Hockey Helps the Homeless Waterloo Region

House of Friendship also receives significant support from Hockey Helps the Homeless Waterloo Region, which holds an annual hockey tournament in support of local emergency shelters, including House of Friendship. After seven years of tournaments, the local organization has raised more than a million dollars for this community. Thank you!
