In 2000, Free for All Outreach Ministry was formed, due to the growing needs in Toronto’s priority neighbourhoods.
At the time the ministry was created around a church with a heart for outreach. Youth in these communities needed encouragement, feasible alternatives, and skills development which further led to the formation of the Free for All Outreach Youth Ministry. With a thriving ministry located in Toronto many of the members lived within the Region of Peel and saw a need to support youth who were dealing with similar issues as those in Toronto. This birthed Free For All Foundation (FFAF) in a non profit organization with services that have now expanded to individuals, children, youth, newcomers, seniors, families, and communities.
The foundation’s early vision was to develop and offer programs that provide help in the following areas: bible studies, counseling, homework, mentorship, job placement / apprenticeships and general encouragement.
FFAF, is a multi service organization with various locations throughout the GTA, including Brampton, Mississauga, and Toronto. The goal of FFAF is to assist our clients in becoming productive members of society. We strongly believe that no one should be denied service for any reason and seek to provide supports to marginalized communities.
