WYCHWOOD OPEN DOOR - TORONTO'S ST. CLAIR WEST NEIGHBOURHOOD

- a safe, supportive drop-in centre for the homeless and socially isolated people.

The Wychwood Open Door is part of our St. clair community.  It provides a safe place for social interaction.  It has been doing so, since 1986.

The recession has greatly affected everyone, including Wychwood Open Door.  Some of the members have lost their jobs and people from other parts of Ontario are coming to Toronto looking for work, and ending up at Wychwood Open Door.

Wychwood Open Door is appealing to the Community for donations, so they can help everyone in need.

Wychwood Open Door operates out of the Church basement, at St. Clair Avenue West, and Rushton. 

If you are a person in need, you can drop in Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.  A hot breakfast and lunch is served.

Over 14,000 meals were served in 2008.  There is a lot of need out there.

Other than a meal, you can also find volunteer members who provide help; encourage you, help to build your self-esteem and provide help from housing and addiction counselors.

If you can afford it, please support Wychwood Open Door.  They spend their money wisely.  They use a lot of volunteers.  They save the money for where it's really needed.

Wychwood Open door is a registered charity, so you will get a tax receipt for your donation.

Things may be tight for you right now too, but think of those who can't even afford one hot meal per day.

$40 feeds one person FOR A MONTH.

$100 feeds 13 people for a week ...
