Welcome to
Calgary Homeless Foundation

Calgary Homeless Foundation guides the fight against homelessness in Calgary.

We advise governments, service providers, and community leaders on how to best leverage their combined resources and programs in a unified fight against homelessness.

Together, we envision the day when homelessness is rare, brief and non-recurring—perhaps an episode in someone’s life, but never a condition that defines it.
