Welcome to WoodGreen

The face of poverty is changing. WoodGreen provides solutions.

WoodGreen is one of the largest social service agencies in Toronto, delivering a broad range of integrated programs — from physical, mental health and disability services to affordable housing and employment initiatives. For 85 years, we have worked with communities and policy makers to reduce poverty, enhance self-sufficiency, and promote health and wellbeing across the city.

As a United Way Anchor Agency with a proven track record, we are part of a network of local organizations striving to develop innovative solutions to critical social needs.

What drives someone to support WoodGreen? One donor’s story

All over Toronto, people are helping others, lifting up their neighbours however they can. One of those people is Norm Fraser.

A long-time Toronto resident, Norm deeply values supporting the very real efforts of those seeking to bring real change to real people.

Deciding which organization would best convert his donation into making a difference was key.
