TORONTO, Nov. 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Solidifi Charitable Foundation (the "Foundation”) today announced that it has donated $50,000 to L'Accueil Bonneau, a long-standing Montreal non-profit dedicated to helping individuals experiencing homelessness.
"Homeownership provides a permanent and stable environment - creating a sense of safety and control, which is critical for rebuilding lives,” said Solidifi Charitable Foundation Chair and Real Matters Chief Executive Officer Brian Lang. "As many as 40,000 young people in Canada experience homelessness every year, with an average of 6,000 living without stable housing on any given night. We are truly grateful to the appraisers on our network whose ongoing contribution to the Solidifi Charitable Foundation help make these gifts possible. Together, we are proud to support L'Accueil Bonneau and the work they do to offer critical resources, including offering emergency food and shelter services and long-term housing solutions and personalized support for those transitioning into the community.”
L'Accueil Bonneau is a non-profit organization created in 1877 in Montreal. Its mission is to welcome people experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness and support them in meeting their daily needs, improve their quality of life and well-being, and guide them in their social reintegration and on their path to housing stability. The housing, support, and health services, as well as the meals and food security programs offered by Accueil Bonneau are essential to ending chronic homelessness.
"We are thankful for the contribution of Solidifi and its appraisers,” said Fiona Crossling, general manager of L'Accueil Bonneau. "Their dedication to help end homelessness and support of those in need allows us to continue our mission to provide stable housing as the foundation to rebuild lives.”
The Solidifi Charitable Foundation has been raising funds to support non-profit organizations since 2011. In addition to corporate contributions from Solidifi Canada, the Foundation is funded in part by the generosity of appraisers who participate in our Buck at a Time program through which they donate one dollar ($1) from every Solidifi assignment completed.
