A new online presence for MTH

MTH has been a story. The story began with a Champion article and this blog, in 2008. Others have evolved it into the sustainable organisation it is today supporting those in a housing crisis in the Milton community. 

This blog is now superseded by an onsite blog on the new responsive Milton Transitional Housing website.

"The site looks awesome! Simple and clean in its design, and easy to navigate," said Editor of the Champion, Catherine O'Hara, describing the new website

We have invested well over 100-hours to relaunch it. I am grateful to Paul Wilkinson for his work with me on the website development and also Stacey Newman for provided us with the photography. We also want to recognise the incredible dedication of Mary Judge who built the original MTH website and has managed it ever since. Much has changed in the online world since that original website was developed.

Where the MTH story began - Canadian Champion

"Homelessness on the rise" 

This was the headline on the September 12, 2008 Milton Canadian Champion which stimulated both this blog and ultimately what became Milton Transitional Housing.

The Champion has graciously provided us permission to include that defining front page on our new website. Their current editor, Catherine O'Hara and I met this morning to chat about this journey.

It is a thrill for all of us involved to see the charity expand to help those at risk of homelessness in our community. The need is real and growing. You are enabling us to make a difference. It has had a profound effect on those people supported through the program.

The new Milton Transitional Housing website is anticipated at the end of June.  It will explore the story of how MTH came about, including the strong sustained support of the Champion.
