Our Impact

The rising cost of living continues to drive demand for our services. In Squamish, 21% of residents live in unaffordable housing, and nearly 500 renters spend over 50% of their income on housing. Since 2021, homelessness has increased by 12%. Food bank visits have surged, and our landfill is nearing capacity.

With food prices up 27% and housing costs up 29% in three years, access to affordable essentials is more critical than ever. Our community hub provides vital support. 

In 2024, we were able to provide:

• 21,398 nights in stabilized, supported housing and emergency beds
• 5,338 loads of laundry + free showers
• 107,505 kg of rescued food (14% decrease from 2023), repurposed into 97,002 meals
• 52,633 breakfasts & lunches for vulnerable youth
• 2,768 Meals on Wheels for seniors & mobility-impaired individuals
• 41,601 hot meals at Under One Roof
• 9,729 unique food bank visits, averaging 810 visitors/month (80% increase since 2023)
• 284 unique patient visits at our primary care clinic

Every connection we make brings us closer to a healthier, more equitable community.
