Need a friend or someone to talk to? Come see us. If we cannot help, we will direct you to someone who can. We are in contact almost daily with local organizations directing individuals to services they may not know about.

Our mission: Nobody gets left behind or forgotten in Niagara.

How we are different: We are individuals who have put our talents together to give back to our community. We are not here for recognition/glory. We are here to treat others how we would want to be treated.

Donations: Currently looking for food donations, clothing, hygienic items, personal care items, cases of water, and items of warmth

Funding: We rely solely on donations from the community and local businesses.

Current Businesses who have donated and are continuing to donate: Truth Niagara, Small Scale Farms, Niagara Furniture Bank, Value Village (Seaway Mall), Legion (branch 613)

We are currently looking to start a 3 month pilot project downtown welland in our own space. This go fund me will cover rent for three months and allow us to make some renovations to make sure the space works for us. The space will have a free food area, clothing space, laptop with wifi available, and an area for peer to peer support group counseling sessions. Any funds left over will go towards either our Christmas Dinner on December 23rd or to our weekly community meals that happen every Thursday. 

Here is a video to show our current space that we clearly have outgrown as well as showcase a little bit about our cause: https://www.facebook.com/beyondthestreetsniagara/videos/980616209131248/
