Redwood Park Communities receives grant from TD Bank Group to support affordable housing for families in Barrie

Written by Amanda

Redwood Park Communities’ “Hope Through Housing” capital campaign just received a massive boost from TD Bank Group — $250,000 to realize the goal of building the first family-focused short-term supportive housing facility in Barrie, in a unique partnership with the Salvation Army.

“We are thrilled to have TD Bank as a collaborator on this project, working together to build community for families,” said Tim Kent, Redwood co-founder and CEO. “This supportive short-term housing will help a housing crisis be just a brief speed bump for the families who come here, avoiding long-term homelessness and all the harm that comes with that. The impacts will ripple through generations of each family who stays with us and in our community as a whole.”
