2019
Why?
We saw the growing issue of homelessness in our communities and the difficulties people face during the cold Canadian winters.
2019 - 2020
Hockey Sock Toques
Starting from scratch, we had to find a simple way to get and give warm clothing. It turns out Matthew’s mom used to repurpose his hockey socks into toques for him as a kid.
2019 - Now
Our Community
Our community is the heart of our story. The support we’ve received has been the reason that we continue to grow and help more people.
