| Raising the Roof is Canada's only national charity dedicated to long-term solutions to homelessness. We: |
 | Raise funds for local, grassroots agencies working to alleviate homelessness in their communities, through our National Annual Toque Campaign. |
 | Raise awareness among Canadians about the true nature of homelessness through initiatives such as our Hidden Homelessness Campaign. Planning is underway for a National Public Education Campaign on youth homelessness. |
 | Build partnerships by giving people, corporations and organizations the opportunity to participate in solutions. Since 2006, through our Youthworks initiative, we have engaged Canadians – including government, researchers, community agencies, youth and the private sector/unions – in the pursuit of lasting solutions to youth homelessness. |
