Hey! I'm Jacques and from August 9th - September 9th I'm raising money to support Homebase Kingston and the Kingston Youth Services Hub.

Starting on my birthday and lasting a month, I'm hoping to fundraise in honour of a close friend of mine I'd lost earlier last year, and other loved ones who still struggle. This campaign will work in tandem with a concert I am running out of Tommy's restaurant in Kingston, with the goal being to use my audience and reach in order to make a positive difference in my community. Other attractions this year include a concert with funk artist KaKaow at Musiikki and a pop up show at Reid's Clothing.

Home Base Housing’s Kingston Youth Services Hub:

KYSH, or The Kingston Youth Services Hub, is a dynamic and comprehensive center dedicated to supporting vulnerable and homeless youth aged 16-24 in Kingston. This innovative facility offers wrap-around services, including life skills training, employment services, and housing solutions, all aimed at fostering stability and personal growth. The Hub acts as a beacon of hope, providing a safe and nurturing environment where young individuals can access the resources and support they need to build a brighter future. With a strong focus on holistic wellness and community integration, the Kingston Youth Services Hub is a vital asset in the effort to uplift and empower the city’s most at-risk youth.
