Dear Friends, family and supporters of The Andrés Project,
You probably have noticed that for a while now, we have not posted any activities of our project. Unfortunately, when Covid hit, it changed the way we did things, and we stopped our activities that we so much loved.
We did manage to donate blankets, socks and sleeping bags to other organizations that worked directly with those who called DTES home over the 2 last years.
Today, we made our final donation of $3,000 to the Union Gospel Mission, which were funds that we had left in The Andrés Project bank account. By doing so today, our donation will be matched by an anonymous donor, and we are sure that this contribution will help those who most need it.
Our Board of Directors have made a decision to close The Andrés Project, but we will continue, in our own aways, to raise awareness and advocate for those who are suffering with mental health/addiction.
We could have not helped so many people without all of you and we want to say, once again, thank you for all your support.
We kindly ask you to continue to spread love and support to those facing challenges beyond their control and a pair of dry socks for someone on the street means a lot to them.
If you can, keep giving! Even a smile can change someone’s day.
Happy New Year!
