It’s been a confusing, often overwhelming time in the world lately, hasn’t it? Yet even in uncertain times, your unwavering support has been a constant — bringing care, compassion, and clarity to youth in our city when they’ve needed it most. And I can’t thank you enough for your support!
As Toronto's only youth Community Health Centre, we’ve been able to make an extraordinary impact this year — and it’s been possible with the support of people like you championing our work and cheering on our youth. Here are some highlights:
- Nearly 800,000 people found the answers they needed on TeenHealthSource.com, our award-winning comprehensive sexual health resource hub.
- More than 10,000 youth from all across Toronto were able to access compassionate and non-judgmental healthcare and community programs.
- Almost 800 youth without health insurance received vital abortion support and assistance navigating services.
- We launched a new satellite clinic in partnership with Black Creek Community Health Centre and North York Women’s Shelter to reach underserved and lower-income youth.
- We stood strong for queer and trans youth facing hateful rhetoric, offering them safe spaces, community programming, and mental health supports.
- Behind the scenes, we overhauled our IT infrastructure, strengthening our ability to deliver virtual care more effectively and efficiently than ever before.
Your support makes so much of our work possible. Every dollar you give directly impacts young people in our city, putting them at the centre of their own healthcare.
GivingTuesday is coming up in just one week. It’s an inspiring movement that celebrates generosity and provides such a beautiful example of the power of people and organizations to transform their communities. For us, GivingTuesday is an annual opportunity to advocate even harder and bolder for reproductive justice and the future of youth.
And I’m so excited to let you know that our donation page is already open! By donating today, you’ll help us continue providing sexual health education, reproductive care, abortion support, mental health counselling, and connection through community programs — all the things that help youth thrive.
Together, we’re building a healthier, more just future for all youth in Toronto. Will you join us again?
With heartfelt thanks,
