NO ONE IN OUR
COMMUNITY WILL BE HOMELESS!

The Bridges offers 83 emergency sheltering beds. The third floor provides 56 beds for overnight stays. The first floor has 27 mats which can be used to accommodate individuals should the number seeking an overnight stay exceed the number of available beds. The second floor consists of 20 Supportive Housing bachelor units.

We focus on helping individuals experiencing homelessness to make positive changes in their lives. Support is provided through our daily drop-in programs. Delivered using the wraparound model, our supports include meals, overnight accommodations, group activities, and a chaplaincy program among others.

Your financial donation will help us to find permanent, appropriate housing for individuals experiencing homelessness. One-time gifts, monthly donations, or a bequest in your will ensures we are here when we are needed.

Our dedicated team of regular and part-time volunteers work alongside our staff to help individuals who are experiencing homelessness. Volunteers participate in most areas of our organization from helping with meal prep to creating and hosting successful events. If you would like to learn more about volunteering at The Bridges get in touch with our volunteer coordinator by email at pcorkery@cambridgesheltercorp.ca.

Cambridge Shelter Corporation grew from the Out of the Cold program that was operated in seven churches in Cambridge during the winter months from 1998 to 2005. Thanks to the helping hands of our caring community we are able to a full range of services and supports.

Our mission is to provide safe shelter, and to offer programs and services in support of the hopes and needs of people dealing with life issues.
