Community Outreaches
In the heart of Toronto lies St. James Town, the most densely populated area in Canada with over 25,000 living in 18 Highrise buildings on one city block. Due to its multicultural diversity, St. James Town is sometimes refered to as
"The World On A Block". It is a landing ground in the Toronto area for many Newcomers and Refugees. While it has such a beautiful mosaic of cultures and peoples, poverty cast a showdow over many households. Statistics reveal that a significant portion of its residents struggle to meet basic needs, with poverty rates exceeding the city average. In such an environment, Freedom City operates a number of Community Outreaches and other programs, all aimed at reducing food insecurity and poverty and giving people hope for a better future.
