Aunt Leah's Place

Aunt Leah’s place helps prevent children in foster care from becoming homeless and mothers in need from losing custody of their children. For over thirty years, Aunt Leah’s vision has been ‘to create an environment where all children connected to the foster care system have equal opportunities akin to what parented children receive’. By modeling Canadian families, and surrounding youth with holistic supports – including food security, housing, counseling, access to healthcare, life skill development, education, and employment opportunities – and with the help of our generous supporters, we have seen young people from foster care realize their potential and become independent adults connected to the community. Aunt Leah’s Place has been selected as one of Canada’s top 10 Impact charities, by Charity Intelligence for a fifth time and four years in a row.
