All funds raised through this year’s in person Toronto Santa Shuffle will go directly to The Salvation Army Gateway, a shelter and Drop-in center for individuals experiencing homelessness and marginalization.

Although our programing has been restricted due to COVID-19, we’re still operating 54 shelter beds at 100% capacity and continue to provide 40 take-out meals each day to our Drop-in community.

The annual operating cost for our Drop-in has increased to approximately $100,000. 75% of these funds are used to provide food for our Drop-in guests, and the remaining 25% covers the staffing costs and PPE required to safely provide support to those who need it.

We are very grateful to have been able to fully fund our 2022 Drop-in program as a result of the record breaking amount of money raised through last year’s Toronto Santa Shuffle.

Please register for this year’s event now to help us surpass our goal for 2023!
