Each year, the Old Brewery Mission receives feedback from our individual and corporate donors about our programs and personal experiences in volunteering at the Mission. Hearing from members of the Montreal community who support our services is rewarding and lets us know that we are moving in the right direction in our efforts to soothe and solve homelessness. Please take a few moments to read some of the comments that our donors have made.
Thank you so much for the great work you do for people. We have been faithful to the Old Brewery Mission for more than 20 years, and we will continue as best we can.

As the holidays approach, more and more people need help. Nothing to be ashamed of, needing help once in a while. I am glad I can help a bit and I hope in the future I can help some more.

Sponsoring a Supper
This experience gave us, as individuals who are very fortunate to have a safe and warm home, a glimpse of those far less fortunate. Despite their difficult situation, we found them to be very polite and appreciative of our efforts.
The Old Brewery Mission is run like a tight ship; it is clean, disciplined, and acts as a safe shelter for the homeless. As a Montrealer, I feel very proud that we have such an organization like the Old Brewery Mission and, as an employee, I feel very proud that my company supports it in an important way.

It was on a cold February evening that we arrived, my employees and I, to help serve a meal. This enriching experience allowed us to truly appreciate our own good fortune. To be able to share our abundance of warmth and love soothed our souls and did immense good for all involved. I invite you to join this amazing experience at the Old Brewery Mission.

[Sponsoring a supper was] ...a gesture which will open your eyes and your heart to the importance of giving back to society. Each one of us can make a difference, we must act – not just think about it.
