When the number of COVID cases started to rise in Toronto earlier this year, we had to figure out how to offer our essential services without putting clients and staff at undue risk. PPE (personal protective equipment) was critical and largely unavailable.
Then we learned that a shipment was being sent to us from the Presbyterian Church in Taiwan! Their gift of disposable aprons, isolation gowns, and face masks, along with a generous financial gift, allowed ehm to expand programming and re-open the Drop-In for sit-down service.
We are so touched by the care and assistance that came from such a distance.
