About
Mission Services of London Foundation stewards and grants funding to Mission Services of London, a Christian faith-based organization founded in 1951.
Committed to serving London and area with compassion and dignity, Mission Services of London assists individuals and families, regardless of background or faith, who struggle with poverty, homelessness, addiction, and mental illness. Through three sites of service, the organization provides safe shelter, nutritious meals, clothing, outreach support, counselling—and hope for a different tomorrow.
“Being part of Mission Services of London fits with who I am,” says Doreen. “My mother set an example by giving to a cause she believed in. I’ve put time and energy into volunteering here over the years. A legacy gift means my work can continue. It’s the right thing for me”.
