As a worker in the homeless field with past life experience of being homeless as a teenager, I know how much it means to oneself to be able to clean your teeth when not privileged to showering facilities. It makes you feel at least half human.

Each Friday, dozens of older people arrive for free meals at the ACON Health kitchen, and it is great to offer them things that will help bring comfort and support to their lives.”
LEGO brings joy and resilience to children affected by terror
“The outcome of our children’s program, featuring LEGO prizes, was incredible! The children were so excited to get these special gifts, and receive the care that they need at such a sensitive time.”
– Rabbi T*, Program Lead
“These LEGO sets are bringing light into the lives of children who have been through so much recently. They have lost friends and family, but the look on their faces when receiving their playset clearly reflects a moment of joy in such turbulent times.”
– Josh*, Community Member
Caring for Teens
“Due to the young person currently having no access to technology or meaningful connection to the outside world there are increasing concerns regarding social isolation, emotional wellbeing, boredom, and lack of mental stimulation. To support the young person’s emotional regulation, engagement, and overall wellbeing, we are seeking activity-based resources that promote creativity, problem solving, mindfulness, and positive use of time”
This is part of a request received this week from a youth caseworker in our region.

Keeping Essentials Close
The bottle bag initiative was created to address a simple but important challenge faced by people experiencing homelessness: carrying essential items while managing daily life on the move. Access to water is critical, yet carrying a bottle by hand can be inconvenient when individuals are also carrying bags, blankets, or personal belongings.
Creating Connections Through LEGO
“Since receiving the LEGO sets, we’ve seen such a positive shift in our children. They’re more engaged, working together, and taking pride in what they create. It’s become more than just play—it’s a time where they feel confident, connected, and excited to learn each day.” Emma, Educator
