A huge thank you @RafiInterfaith and Saint Lukes Out of the Cold brining this water to folks without access in encampments and sleeping rough. Thanks to the whole community who donated and @BlueTritonBrnds @AtripcoDelivery, @TrucksForChange, @thomsonterminal and @jplogistics!

Filled with love & gratitude for our friends @PFoodchain for this shipment of water to the Out of the Cold Meal Program @ Saint Lukes U.C. Outreach is a large part of what we do. We'll get this water to those sleeping rough & in encampments 🙏💕

Actual question: if @cityoftoronto is piloting six 'Cleaner Air Spaces' to address poor air quality due to wildfires, why can't these spaces be opened more broadly during extreme weather events, like today's heat warning? We need 24/7 extreme weather spaces.

16 yrs volunteering yesterday was the hardest day physically for me to be outside doing outreach & that includes ice storms & extreme cold. Community members I encountered were physically depleted, having issues breathing & barely hanging on. There's no reprieve from this heat 1/
There are no cooling centres with attendant care, health care or support. They were cancelled several years ago and replaced with a heat relief network that includes many inaccessible places eg. Shopping malls with no seating and unwelcoming security….3

With this deadly heatwave, we delivered water for unhoused residents stranded outside today- made possible by folks who donated, @Diana_C_McNally and partners @BlueTritonCA @AtripcoDelivery @TrucksForChange and @thomsonterminal toronto.citynews.ca/video/20… #coolingcentres #housing

We are just so incredibly grateful to @Diana_C_McNally and everyone in the community who have contributed so that our team can distribute life-saving water to unhoused residents during this deadly #heatwave and all summer long. Wow! #torontoheatwave #unhoused

Thank you @Diana_C_McNally and everyone for helping us get water to our unhoused neighbours across Toronto and Peel. We're dreading this heatwave and its unequal impact. If we all had safe, affordable, housing, none of this would be needed.

Since 2020, I've relied on donated water from @PFoodchain to keep people healthy. Without ready access to running water — and more people outdoors die in the heat than in the cold — these donations have literally saved lives. We can't distribute water without your support!

For people living rough, water is truly the gift of life. Kudos to Network carriers: JDSmith, GX Transportation Solutions Inc., and Thomson Terminals Limited,and Atripco Delivery Service for moving hundreds of pallets of water donated to Project FoodChain by BlueTriton Brands.

We just delivered a load of water to @LAMPCHC_info! Unhoused folks who drop by LAMP don't have access to taps, glasses or a place to escape the heat, so water is lifesaving.
Thanks LAMP, @BlueTritonCA, @AtripcoDelivery, @TrucksForChange & @thomsonterminal for making this happen!

There is also a petition being circulated in support of the life-saving services being offered at South Riverdale Community Health Centre, and the need of increased support for harm reduction and supervised consumption services in our communities! you.leadnow.ca/petitions/sup…

As a Toronto neighbourhood recovers from tragedy, community health leaders at @SRiverdaleCHC are going door to door to take responsibility for #CommunitySafety while continuing to pursue the goal of #HealthEquity accessible, life-saving services for all: thestar.com/news/gta/lesliev…

City data shows that Toronto turned away an average of 273 people a day from shelters during the month of June, a record high for a city struggling to provide for its homeless population. trib.al/MkIPVXG

Heat Alert for this week! Please check on vulnerable neighbours. Almost all of @tngcommunityTO housing has air conditioning. And we have two cooling spaces for tenants that need them during heat alerts. Essential for the future!

The heat continues and there's little respite for unhoused folks.
Fortunately we're still getting water to agencies including our wonderful friends at @VeahavtaNews.
Thanks @BlueTritonCA for the donation & @AtripcoDelivery & @thomsonterminal for delivery & transport!

We'd like to give a big thanks to @TrucksForChange and their incredible partner @GXTransport for bringing a truckload of vital water from our donor @BlueTritonCA in Guelph to the @AtripcoDelivery warehouse for delivery to unhoused community members across the GTA!

We'd like to thank @AtripcoDelivery for their incredible commitment to the community, delivering water each summer for people experiencing homelessness.
We thank the drivers & the whole warehouse team who co-ordinate each delivery to over 60 agencies across the GTA!

With the heat in full force, we're getting as much H20 to our unhoused neighbours as we can, including to our friends at @ehm_1913!
Thanks @BlueTritonCA for the massive water donation & @AtripcoDelivery, @MackieGroup & @TrucksForChange for delivering, storing and transporting it.

We're back with loads more water for our unhoused neighbours!
We couldn't do this without our friends at @BlueTritonCA, @AtripcoDelivery, @MackieGroup and @TrucksForChange
Special thanks this week to @thomsonterminal for hauling thousands of bottles from Guelph to the GTA!

So concerning, we need to work together and quick on solutions to reverse this trend…..Dozens of people seeking shelter are being told there are no beds available every night, new data suggests cp24.com/news/dozens-of-peop… via @cp24
