🌟 Side by Side at Kate’s Rest Foundation 🌟

For eight years, our residents and neighbours from Friendship United Church, Demorestville, have gathered monthly to share a meal and strengthen the bonds that make Prince Edward County feel like home. These dinners remind us that everyone deserves a place where they’re welcomed, valued, and included.

Read the full story in our latest blog and see how this tradition continues to shape community at Kate’s Rest Foundation ❤️

At Kate’s Rest Foundation, community grows through simple, steady acts of care — and one of the most meaningful has been happening for eight years.

Homelessness is rarely just about losing a roof over your head; it is so often rooted in trauma, loss, and the fundamental human need for belonging.

Today, we are sharing David’s story—a profoundly moving reflection on his life, his struggles with past trauma and addiction, and the beautiful bond he shared with his brother. During their years at Kate's Rest, they brought love, humor, and deep humanity to our community.

While David's journey was marked by extraordinary challenges, his time with us reminds us why providing a safe, supportive home is the vital first step toward healing. We remember him not for how his story ended, but for how he lived. 🤍
