Helping for Homes, a new agency in Ottawa, is launching services on October
1st, 2010.
Helping for Homes was created as a means to help the marginally housed
obtain basic needs for independent living. Items that we have in stock
include: dishes, pots, pans, utensils, cutlery, towels, bedding, cleaning
products etc.
Anyone who identifies as a low income individual can access the inventory at
Helping for Homes. All an individual needs to do is send us an email at
helpingforhomes at gmail.com, we will respond by the next business day and try
our best to deliver the items within two business days. If the individual
does not have an email account they can ask someone to send the email on
their behalf.
For individuals who are moving into a new place we have a "move-in basket"
to help with setting up a room or apartment. Items in the basket are: A
laundry basket, plates, bowls, glasses, mugs, spatula, wooden spoon, ladle,
can opener, cutlery, dish cloth/soap, towel, kleenex, toilet paper, garbage
bags, note pad, pen, and a pot and pan.
To help keep our administrative costs down we try to conduct all business
via email and we do not have a physical location that individuals can go
to. We understand that individuals may not want to give their home address
for us to make deliveries to, if this is the case we will make arrangements
to deliver items to a community agency.
Please feel free to email any questions you might have to
helpingforhomes at gmail.com. I have attached a brochure, our case statement,
and an appeal to agencies letter.
Thank you for your time,
Susan Alcott
