Home Relief Bank

Ensuring everyone has a place to call home

United Way Simcoe Muskoka, in collaboration with local agencies, is launching the Home Relief Bank—a proactive solution to prevent homelessness for individuals and families residing in Simcoe County, the District of Muskoka, and Town of the Blue Mountains.

The Home Relief Bank supports lower income tenants or homeowners to stay in their homes when times get tough by providing access to interest free loans to cover up to two months rent or mortgage payments. Longer terms and small repayments allow people to improve their financial position and remain in their home. Repayments are directed back into the program to assist other people facing similar circumstances in the future.
