Not the best

Youth Support Worker (Former Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 4 March 2020

They pay very low wages, poor management and work culture. There isn't a lot of work to do, and there is a concern of safety with clients. There are a lot of sketchy things that happen behind closed-doors...

Volunteer

Kitchen Aid (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 3 February 2020

Volunteer. It's a worthy cause. You will meet many people from all walks of life, who will transform your perspective of the world. You will develop a sense of community and understanding.

Welcoming and easy-going

VOLUNTEER (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 2 April 2019

I volunteered here several times over the course of my high school experience. We would arrive in the morning, put our stuff away and get right to work on making the beds and food for the men at the shelter. I found it to be a very welcoming and clean environment every time I volunteered. Never had a bad experience.

Memoriable place to do volunteer

Volunteer, Dormitory and Laundry Aide (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 30 December 2015

The typical day at work is to clean up the room, and do the laundry. The supervisor were so nice to everyone of us. All the co-workers were my friends. This job was not challenging at all, but I enjoyed it.

Productive, high risk at work

Support Supervisor (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 14 November 2013

Though I enjoyed working at the place but the management relations with staff is nothing. Typical work day start by ensuring all safety and security procedures are in place, checking on the number of available beds, reaching out to other agencies and writing reports. Team work is diminishing. The most enjoyable part is helping the less privileged in the community

Fun place to be working in with plenty of benefits.

Kitchen Assistant (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 28 June 2013

A typical day consists of laying the food on the trays in the morning. Afterwards there is a break followed by serving the food. After all the food is served, it is time for preparing the food for lunch. I learned how to make coffee while working here. Easy to get along with coworkers
