Ontario Trillium Foundation application

A group of 15 interested parties met last night to discuss the potential Ontario Trillium Foundation grant application through MACCWT. There were six members of the MACCWT Board in attendance together with four members of the Home Suite Hope Oakville organisation and members of the St Paul's transitional housing task force group who have put the draft grant aplication together. It was a lively and positive debate. The founding members of HSH-O were very impressed with the progress made and hopeful that there vision 8 years ago of a wider Halton transitional housing project may come to fruition in the near future.

First Home Suite Hope Milton executive meeting

Last night we had our first Executive meeting of Home Suite Hope Milton. We worked through a grant application and 5 year plan to bring a transitional housing solution to Milton. We need to complete by January 24th so that MACCWT have the time to review the submission prior to their signature. We need to find a lease owner in Milton willing to supply a letter of intent with us to enter into a 5 year lease arrangement.
