Testimonials

Home & Community Support Services of Grey-Bruce is incredibly honored to be the first recipient of the generous support from the 100 Men Who Give a Damn group. Receiving $10,600 for our Meals on Wheels program will make a difference by helping us keep client costs lower, enabling us to reach more individuals in need and making sure that nutritious, consistent meals are accessible and affordable.
For many seniors in our community, Meals on Wheels provides more than just food. It brings a sense of security, human connection, and dignity, particularly for those who face the daily challenges of isolation, mobility issues, and financial constraints. With the recent increases in the cost of living, many clients are faced with difficult choices between basic needs—food, medication, and heating. Thanks to this generous donation, we can help prevent these choices for some of our most vulnerable clients. Your support means we can subsidize more meals for seniors and adults-with-disabilities in Grey-Bruce.
Thank you, 100 Men Who Give a Damn, for making such a life- changing impact. Together, we are building a stronger, more compassionate community for all.

“On behalf of The Women’s Centre Grey Bruce, I extend our heartfelt thanks to 100 Good Men Who Give a Damn Grey Bruce for your incredible generosity and dedication to making a difference in our community. Your nomination and subsequent awarding of $15,000 to our organization have created a significant and lasting impact on the lives of youth living here in our community. 

For over 40 years, The Women’s Centre Grey Bruce has been a refuge for thousands of women fleeing domestic violence. However, our services go beyond the women’s shelter. We also operate Studio Blue Youth Services, a program dedicated to providing a safe haven for youth aged 15–18 who have been affected by, or are at risk of, human trafficking. This issue is alarmingly prevalent, with Ontario accounting for nearly 70% of Canada’s reported human trafficking incidents, and growing concerns within the Grey Bruce area.

Your contribution is helping us address one of the critical needs of Studio Blue: the renovation of the youth residence kitchen. A kitchen is far more than just a functional space—it is the heart of our home. It is where vulnerable youth gather to share meals, connect with one another, and learn life skills that will empower them as they rebuild their lives. Thanks to your support, we can replace our outdated and failing appliances and cabinetry, transforming the kitchen into a welcoming, functional, and nurturing environment. 

Additionally, part of your generous donation will help stock our freezer, fridge, and pantry, ensuring that the youth in our care have access to nutritious meals as they heal and grow. This investment directly contributes to their well-being and recovery, providing stability and a sense of community that many of these young people have never experienced.

In recognition of your support, we will proudly display a plaque in the new kitchen, serving as a permanent reminder of the compassion and commitment of the 100 Good Men Who Give a Damn Grey Bruce. Your generosity is not only an investment in our facilities but also in the futures of the youth we serve—teenagers who could be classmates, friends, or even children of those in our community. 

It is men who do NOT give a damn who perpetuate the cycles of trauma and exploitation. But it is men like YOU—men who DO give a damn—who make healing, safety, and brighter futures possible for those in need. Your support embodies the power of collective action, and together, we are changing young lives in Grey Bruce for the better. Thank you for standing with us in the fight against human trafficking and for helping us provide a place of hope and healing for vulnerable youth. Your contribution is truly transforming lives.

Executive Director, The Women's Centre Grey Bruce

On behalf of everyone at the REACH Centre Grey Bruce, please accept our deepest

thanks to 100 Good Men That Give a Damn, for your generous donation in support of

our programming for youth and adults with disabilities.

Thanks to your support, we’ve already been able to send 24 participants to learn

woodworking through an exciting partnership with the Grey Bruce Makers Space. This

fall, we’re looking forward to expanding the program to include metalworking, offering

even more hands-on learning opportunities.

We are also thrilled to be partnering with GB Arts to introduce workshops in jewelry

making, pottery, and more.  None of this would be possible without your generosity.

These are not just programs—they are life-changing opportunities for vulnerable

individuals who might not otherwise have had the chance to explore their creativity

and build skills in safe, inclusive, and fully accommodated environments that

celebrate their unique challenges and gifts.

From all of us at REACH, thank you for helping to make this vision a reality.
