Someone is hurt, a life is in danger, there is a fire, or a crime is happening. Police, fire and ambulance.
Call or text any hour if you are thinking of ending your life or cannot keep yourself safe. Free. A trained person answers.
Your city's help line. In Toronto it is open any hour and can find you an emergency shelter bed tonight and connect you to city services like Ontario Works (welfare). Peel, Halton and Durham have 311 too. York Region and Hamilton don't, so call 211 there.
Food, housing, welfare, legal help, mental health and more, anywhere in Ontario. Free, any hour, in many languages.
Boxing for adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities, coached properly, never a fee. For four years it has run on one coach’s unpaid Tuesdays and Thursdays. Your gift is what makes it permanent.
That message line is how your gift lands in All-Abilities and nowhere else.
Straight talk on receipts: we’re an incorporating not-for-profit, and official charitable tax receipts aren’t available until CRA registration completes. Corporate sponsorships don’t need receipts; they’re a business expense either way.
About the program →A standing monthly e-transfer with HOB ALL ABILITIES in the message is the thing a volunteer program never has: a schedule that does not depend on someone’s free evenings.
Put your company’s name behind All-Abilities: session sponsorship, gym-wall signage, program naming. Talk to us.
New or clean used kit, printing, trades and services. Tell us what you have.
Certified coaches, mentors, drivers, grant writers. Everyone working with youth or vulnerable adults completes a vulnerable sector check; we walk you through it. Raise your hand.
Certified coaches paid for their time, so sessions stop depending on unpaid afternoons and hold up through the summer.
Specialist sports coverage written to include adult athletes with disabilities, the most common reason gyms quietly turn them away.
Gloves, wraps, pads and adaptive equipment, sized and ready, so nobody is stopped at the door by gear they don’t own.
Adaptive-instruction training for more coaches and more sessions in the week, with families and support workers built into the schedule.
The end of the road: a permanent home for all-abilities athletes with the amenities they need. Every gift marked for this program lays ground toward it.
