About Us
At Ve’ahavta, the Jewish ethics of justice, kindness, and responsibility move from guiding principles into tangible actions. Through our social service programs, we address the long-standing societal problem of local poverty and homelessness while simultaneously mobilizing volunteers by providing opportunities to take action and make a difference. At Ve’ahavta these principles of Judaism come alive in a uniquely Canadian way – inclusive of all backgrounds and faiths, and built on the belief that when we all come together with purpose, we can solve even the largest of society’s challenges.
How Can You Help?
Roughly 10,000 Torontonians are currently facing homelessness right now. Our mobile van program provides nutritious meals, essential clothing, and hygiene supplies - along with referrals to vital supports and resources - to those living on or near the streets, seven days a week.
All the items listed below are needed by our clients to stay healthy, safe, and cared for. Please browse through and select as many items and their quantities as you'd like to donate to our mobile van program. When you donate an item, it gets shipped directly to our door!

Can you spare two minutes to save the world?
OK, two minutes might not be enough for that. But it's plenty of time for you to personalize and share a copy of our campaign.
Together we can do some good for this cause. And it won't cost you a penny—just a few minutes of your time.
