Welcome to the
Windsor Residence for Young Men
Windsor Residence for Young Men (WRYM) supports young men 16-24 years of age as they leave homelessness behind to build new lives. WRYM provides a supportive functional family atmosphere, delivers individual counselling, and teaches basic life skills. WRYM helps homeless young men to integrate into the community and reconnect with extended family or independent living, as well as education and employment. We support active citizenship, not dependence, and we follow up with our residents as they become active citizens. We work together to end homelessness.
**Update June 17 - Our Invest in Citizenship 2021 drive has received the benefit of another matching donor, bringing our total of matching funds to $5,000. At this time, another $1,100 in donations is needed to equal this additional offer to match our donations.
June is Canadian Citizenship Month at The Windsor Residence for Young Men.
Some of our supporters have pooled pledges (currently at $3,000) to match your donations during our Invest in Citizenship 2021 Campaign, which ends on Canada Day, July 1.
In addition, you could turn $1 into $20,000 this June! The Great Canadian Giving Challenge is back!
This June, every $1 donated to any charity on CanadaHelps (our secure funds transfer provider) is an automatic chance to WIN $20,000 for your favourite charity.
WRYM empowers formerly homeless youth to become full citizens.

Residents, volunteers and staff of the Windsor Residence for Young Men extend our most heartfelt gratitude to Edy Haddad for establishing the “The Deacon Ray Scholarship” in memory of his role model and benefactor, Deacon Ray Mady. Our programs aim to empower formerly homeless youth to become active productive citizens of our community.
