We are pleased to recognize the generous funding support provided by the Community Housing Transformation Centre for our project, “Building Capacity to Scale: Governance, Strategy and Housing Development.”

This investment will help EHI strengthen its governance, develop a clear long-term strategy, enhance organizational capacity, and advance its readiness for future affordable housing development. These foundations are essential as we continue growing into a sustainable, responsive, and effective community housing provider.

On Tuesday, Equal Housing Initiative’s nutrition program was powered by the generosity and dedication of our amazing volunteers!

A huge thank you to the 8 volunteers who came together to help prepare food hampers for individuals and families in need throughout Winnipeg’s North End. ❤️

🍽️The hampers included bread, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, and desserts. 🍽️

Your time, energy, and compassion helped make a real difference in our community. Every food hamper distributed brings hope, nourishment, and support to those facing food insecurity.

🙌We are incredibly grateful for each and every volunteer who helped make this initiative possible. Thank you for giving back and helping us build a stronger, healthier community. 🙌

Today, we honor the legacy of Terry Fox - a Canadian hero whose courage, determination, and hope continue to inspire generations.

Terry's Marathon of Hope showed us that one person can make a lasting difference. His journey reminds us of the power of resilience, compassion, and community.

As we celebrate Terry Fox Day, let's reflect on how we can support one another and work together to build stronger, healthier communities for everyone.

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our dear volunteer, Dr. Jim Irving. For many years, Jim gave his time and kindness to our community through helping out with our nutrition program. Jim's hard work and dedication as a volunteer truly changed our community for the better.

Beyond his dedication to our community, Jim was an accomplished Orthopaedic surgeon and an award-winning hockey player. Despite his incredible talents, Jim will always be remembered most for his deep humility and kindness. We will miss his presence more than words can say. Our thoughts and love are with his family during this difficult time.
