OUTREACH:

White Oak is involved in several outreach programs. The first two are projects of The Presbyterian Church in Canada. More information on any of these can be had by following the links.

ARMAGH HOUSE:

Armagh House is a supportive second-stage housing and counselling program for mothers and children in crisis. Second stage is the point in time when a woman and her children have left an abusive home and have already lived for a few months in an emergency hostel. Armagh offers accommodation after the hostel and before the family is able and ready to move into their own apartment. Many legal, financial and social problems must be addressed and resolved to give these women and children the best possible chance to be successful. White Oak supports Armagh House by providing food and gifts

for the families at Christmas and with an ongoing monthly supply of meat throughout the year.

EVANGEL HALL:

For more than 90 years, Evangel Hall Mission, supported by The Presbyterian Church in Canada, has been reaching out to Toronto’s homeless and afflicted population. Many of these people find community at the Hall. They go there for food, for help to access services, for warm clothing and shelter from the cold. Evangel Hall welcomes everybody with a warm smile and kind heart, and strives to meet the material, emotional and spiritual needs of those who seek their help. Spend an hour or a day at Evangel Hall Mission, and you will see the world through different eyes.

THE DAM:

The Dam Youth Drop-in of Mississauga is so-named because it is like a dam that stops the flow of teens from running away and becoming homeless street youth in downtown Toronto. It is their goal to be the friends of youth and to

help them stay at home, in school and in their community.

EDEN COMMUNITY FOOD BANK:

Eden Community Food Bank is a non-denominational, charitable organization, working to eliminate hunger through food distribution to qualified individuals and families living in selected areas of Mississauga, as well as to provide education and advocacy services to their clients and the general public.
