The RIDE is a family-friendly fundraising ride/walk where we gather for local charities that support people who are seeking hope, safety, + freedom all across Canada. Join us Saturday, Oct 4, 2025!
Welcome, safety, and support for refugees.
Located in the heart of downtown Toronto just across the street from Christie Pits park at Christie and Bloor St., Christie Refugee Welcome Centre (CRWC) has provided emergency shelter and a warm welcome for refugee families from all ethnic, racial or religious backgrounds for more than 30 years.
Approximately 200 homeless refugee claimants (100 families) from countries world-wide arrive at Christie each year. At CRWC they receive the care, support and assistance they need to pursue their refugee claim and to reconstruct and begin their new lives in Canada.
RIDE for REFUGE is a wonderful opportunity to support and advocate for refugee families arriving in Toronto.
