WELCOME TO THE
WINDSOR RESIDENCE FOR YOUNG MEN
The 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 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.
OUR EVENTS
With Christmas only weeks away, the Windsor Residence for Young Men is holding two seasonal campaigns, Giving Tuesday and Season of Giving, to raise funds to support WRYM's programs that help young men ages 16-24 overcome homelessness and build new lives. By making a donation, you will be making a difference in these young men's lives.
Thank you in advance and Happy Holidays from all of us here at WRYM!

wrym's awards reception
The Windsor Residence for Young Men (WRYM) held its Awards Reception on Thursday, November 2, 2023 at the Ciociaro Club. We presented three Heart and Soul awards, three Community Awareness awards and one Legacy Award. Jim Crichton, retired broadcaster, was the MC for the event and did an amazing job. Frank Renaud was our Keynote Speaker and he delivered a moving speech about the importance of men's mental health, strong role models, and healthy supports.
We are so very thankful to have the supporters that we do. Without you this wouldn't be possible. Thank you!
