Over twenty-five years ago, St. Andrew's Church began to open its doors for people on the streets of Toronto, offering a place for them to come in out of the cold and have a good meal.

Our chef works with a large team of volunteers to prepare delicious meals. Our mandate from the beginning is to serve meals that we would be proud to serve our family and friends. In recent years we have often welcomed over three hundred guests on some evenings.
The Boutique
In addition to serving wonderful meals, guests are welcome in our Boutique where they can choose new and gently used clothing as well as toiletry items. All of these items are donated.
Items Needed:
men's running/casual shoes size 10-13
women's shoes size 7-9

Please note that the boutique is only open every other week at Tuesday breakfast - June 23rd it will be available and then every other week from then on.
