Every woman deserves a safe place to call home.

Women's Housing Foundation is a Canadian nonprofit working to ensure women in crisis have access to safe shelter, compassionate support, and a path forward.

Supporting women across Canada since 2021

Who we support

Built for women who need it most.

We support women facing housing instability, crisis, and the aftermath of trauma — women who often have nowhere else to turn.

Safe, stable housing is not a luxury. It is the foundation from which women can heal, rebuild, and reclaim their lives.

Through respite housing, crisis support, and community programs, we walk alongside women at every step of their journey.

What we're working toward

Building something lasting.

Our vision is a network of safe housing and wraparound support for women across Canada. We are actively developing our housing programs, community partnerships, and funded services — and we want you to be part of it from the beginning.

Some programs are still in development. We are transparent about where we are and where we are headed.

How you can help

Three ways to make a difference.

Supporter memberships, donations, and events are how we fund free housing support for women. Every contribution — large or small — moves us closer to our goal.
