Student-led registered charity working to support youth facing homelessness

Our Mission

Our goal is to foster relationships and partnerships across Ontario by educating and inspiring youth to advocate for their peers in-need.

Formulating a sense of belonging and de-stigmatizing adolescents aligns with our mission of ensuring that no child is left behind, and neither are their belongings.
