Community Messages: FIND turns 15

Congratulations to FIND Edmonton on your 15th Anniversary. FIND has been an invaluable partner to the George Spady Society, strengthening our ability to support individuals as they transition from homelessness into stable housing. Since the early days of FIND, their work has transformed what a housing placement can look like for the people we serve — ensuring that men and women moving into Intensive Case Management Housing programs are welcomed not by empty rooms, but by spaces furnished with dignity, comfort, and the essentials needed to begin again. FIND’s social enterprise model, developed through the vision of Homeward Trust, has allowed this support to be both sustainable and far-reaching, while also diverting furniture from landfills and engaging donors, volunteers, and community partners in meaningful ways.

For George Spady Society clients, the opportunity to choose furnishings that reflect their own identity has reinforced autonomy, pride, and a sense of home that is critical to housing stabilization. This partnership has helped make housing placements more successful and sustainable over the years, and as FIND celebrates its 15th anniversary, we extend our sincere gratitude for a collaboration that has profoundly enhanced our work and supported countless individuals in moving forward with hope, stability, and belonging.
