Having access to safe, secure and affordable housing is a basic human need that many people across the Capital Region struggle to attain. This fund supports organizations, programs, services and Strategic Initiatives of Victoria Foundation that meet the needs of the unhoused community and those who are precariously housed or at risk of losing housing. Grants from this fund will strengthen pathways to stable housing including housing support programs, pre-employment and life skills training, and activities that contribute to the prevention of homelessness.
