When a team comes together, a garage full of donations becomes a home for someone. 💙 Thank you, @bmocanada ! Their team of volunteers spent an afternoon with us at our Pembroke shelter, sorting and organizing our donation garage so we have room for more, then helped furnish a new supportive housing unit for one of our clients. Empty in the morning, ready for someone to move in by the afternoon. How amazing is that? 🏠✨ We’re so grateful to everyone from BMO who gave their time. Community partners make our work possible, and days like this are a reminder of that. #StreetHaven #BMOVolunteers #SupportiveHousing #Toronto

We had Dayna go around and ask our staff "what would Andrea say?" #StreetHaven #GreatPlacetoWork #Community #TorontoNonProfit

We're so excited to announce that we're a semi-finalist for the @charityvillage Diversity, Equity & Inclusion in the Workplace Award! From creating our first DEI committee, which meets monthly to talk about how we can be even more inclusive, to hosting events like our Black History Month party, where we come together over food, music, and activities that celebrate different cultures, DEI is just part of how we do things at Street Haven. We've always known that our differences are what makes us stronger. We didn’t need an award to tell us that, but we’re proud to be recognized for the work we’ve done to make sure everyone at Street Haven feels included and supported. #DEIintheWorkplace #CharityVillageAwards2026 #StreetHaven

Thank you to our Social Committee for hosting an incredible Townhall, and to our DEI Committee for facilitating such thoughtful activities that gave us space to reflect together. A special congratulations to all the staff who reached years-of-service milestones, and to our Staff and Volunteer Award winners! Here’s to all we’ve accomplished together and the work still ahead! #StreetHaven #TeamWork #StaffAppreciation #StrongerTogether

It’s election day in Toronto! And since it’s Women’s History Month, we want to take a minute to remember the women who fought for the right to vote. 🗳️ When Canada was formed in 1867, only men could vote in federal elections. Women started organizing in the 1870s, right here in Toronto and across the country, with activists like Nellie McClung leading the way. It took decades of petitions, lobbying and public lectures, but Manitoba women won the provincial vote in 1916. Ontario followed on April 12, 1917, and by 1918 most women could vote federally. Most, but not all. Indigenous women, among others, were shut out for decades. Indigenous women couldn’t vote federally until 1960, and it wasn’t until 1969 that every Canadian of age could vote regardless of gender or race. Closer to home, Constance Hamilton became the first woman on Toronto City Council in 1920, and the first woman in Ontario to hold elected office. Then in 1921, Agnes Macphail became the first woman elected to the House of Commons. Municipal elections matter more than a lot of people think. City hall decides things you deal with every day, like how often your bus comes, what happens with your local parks, libraries and community centres, and how the city responds to housing and homelessness. At Street Haven, we know how much voting matters. Last week, the @mossparkcoalition visited our shelter to let our clients know they can vote even without a permanent address. They went over how voting works, what ID to bring and why it matters. Everyone deserves a say in the decisions that shape their community. So please get out and vote! Polls are open from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm. #WomensHistoryMonth #ElectionDay #Toronto #VoteTO #StreetHaven
