As 2023 is only a day away, we would like to recap our impact and accomplishments this year. Through 12 months of hard and passionate work, our 250 volunteers and 13 directors have managed to make an impact on the DTES community with the distribution of meals and necessities.
To our high-school student volunteers, sponsors and collaborators: everything could not have been possible without your support. Through the most inclement weather and plethora of various distribution formats, you have adapted yet stayed true to your values of community service in giving back to our community. Your work is not only valued by government officials, but extremely welcome by the DTES community and its residents.
Wishing to extend our impact beyond our distributions, PH has conducted various interviews and investigations in hopes to advocate for the DTES community while combating the prevalent stigma surrounding homelessness.

We are immensely grateful for our longtime collaborator, Youzang, for showing his support and providing media coverage.

We thank our volunteers, sponsors and collaborators for a productive and impactful 2022 and look forward to our exciting projects in the new year.
