Homeward Bound

You can bring opportunity home for single moms and their children living in poverty.

How can a single, homeless mother become self-sufficient, with a good income to support herself and her children? Is it possible to “jump start” mothers with little education or work experience into family-sustaining careers? Can we break the poverty cycle to ensure children do not become homeless themselves?

The answer is YES, thanks to Homeward Bound.

Homeward Bound brings together everything a family needs to break the cycle of poverty—all under one roof. Unique in Canada, Homeward Bound is a holistic, 4-year job-readiness program featuring:

• Housing
• Child Care
• Personal development support
• The opportunity to earn a two-year diploma
• A guaranteed job at a good wage

Homeward Bound transforms the lives of single mothers living in poverty and their children. Mothers, who only a short time ago were living in shelters or precarious housing, are now proud holders of college diplomas, have developed essential parenting and job-readiness skills, and are employed at some of Canada’s finest institutions. Their children are thriving and excelling both socially and academically.

Thanks to the generousity of people like you, the families are provided with all the essentials they need to succeed. Donors pay for critical elements like tuition, books and materials, after school child care and psychotherapy.

Please make a gift today to transform the lives of these brave families and give them the opportunity to transform their lives forever.
