Re: Continuation of Service
After twenty-five (25) years of serving the community—and an additional ten (10) years prior in Toronto—ResQ Youth has reached a critical juncture in our very existence.
It is with a heavy heart that I inform you of our current predicament. After twelve (12) years at 289 Rutherford Road South, we have been served with a notice terminating our tenancy. In addition, the cost of maintaining our office at the Malton Hub has risen sharply, as we are now required to pay property tax in addition to rent.
With escalating rent, insurance, and operational costs, it has become unsustainable for us to continue serving Black youth in the way you have come to depend on and expect. If you have never considered supporting us before, now is the time to rethink. I am appealing to you to donate whatever you can. Equally important, we are in urgent need of a donated space.
The attached slides provide only a glimpse into the vital work we do.
If you want to see us continue our advocacy—fighting anti-Black racism in education, the justice system, and other institutions; providing court diversion to protect our youth from entering the conviction spectrum; offering mental, emotional, academic, and wraparound supports—then today is the day to stand with us, especially on a day like Giving Tuesday.
You can donate through our website: www.resqyouth.comClick on “Donate”, which will direct you to our Wix page where a tax receipt will be issued.
We truly need your support to survive. If, for any reason, you are unable to give financially, please keep us in your prayers and ask for Divine intervention. Below is my battle song—my declaration of war against the forces working against our youth. Stand with me as we storm the gates on their behalf.
Thank you for your support!
