The Salvation Army Gateway is a 118 bed shelter for men experiencing homelessness in Toronto. We do our best to ensure that our residents have a safe and supportive environment to rest their head—somewhere that feels more like a home than an institution. But beyond meeting the basic needs of food and shelter, we strive to be a place where folks can find friendship, develop their skills, become empowered, and leave in better shape than when they first came through our doors. Something we hear from our residents over and over is that The Gateway is “the place to go if you want to get clean,” and we’re very proud of that reputation. The Gateway is also a drop-in centre for men and women experiencing homelessness and marginalization. We serve meals, offer recreational programs, provide a safe and warm space, and strive to create a healthy community with those who access our services. Finally, we launched a social enterprise (Gateway Linens) in 2009! See our website for more info.
