United Hands began with a belief that youth could be more than future leaders — we could be the ones solving real-world problems now. And we are.
United Hands launched in the GTA with support from local youth volunteers who saw food insecurity rising around them. We stepped up, organizing food drives and cooking hot meals in our own kitchens.
Today, we’re partnering with foodbanks in Mississauga and other regions of the Greater Toronto Area. We are continuously building systems to reach families experiencing poverty, displacement, or recent resettlement — including refugees, asylum seekers, and new immigrants.
We center care in everything we do — from the way we pack a meal to the way we treat our community.
We don’t wait for change — we create it. With urgency, with intention, and with unity.
We partner with local businesses, schools, and food banks to maximize our reach and multiply impact.
