A few words
About Us
WHO WE ARE
Space for Hope Foundation is a Hamilton-based charity dedicated to serving low-income individuals and families in Hamilton and the Greater Toronto Area, by using the power of interior design to transform under-resourced living spaces into safe, functional, and culturally inclusive environments for people navigating hardship.
We serve low-income families, survivors of trauma, seniors, and individuals with disabilities because home should be more than four walls. It should offer hope, safety, comfort and dignity.
We do this by combining thoughtful interior styling, repurposed furniture donations, and culturally inclusive decor to create spaces where individuals can thrive physically, emotionally, and mentally.
