In its first year of operations, Toit à moi set out to establish a proof of concept with five initial housing units.
These units were acquired thanks to a generous donation from the Gauthier Family Foundation. On the following page, you will be able to see them in photos: they are beautiful, warm, and designed to foster resilience after years of hardship.
Le Chaînon and La Maison du Père are the first two housing placement and support partners to join our initiative.
Nicola, Daniel, and Martin are the first three tenants. A woman and a man will soon move into the two other acquired units. We are proud of our tenants and of the journey they have taken to regain stability and peace of mind.
TÀM now has five outstanding housing units dedicated to fostering resilience and helping individuals move beyond trauma.
Frontenac Metro
Honoré-Beaugrand Metro
Place des Arts Metro
Beaudry Metro
Berri–UQAM Metro
TÀM has just acquired its units 2 and 3 thanks to a donation from the Gauthier Family Foundation and a mortgage loan from BMO.
Two superb condos for less than $300,000 have been acquired. Two people who have been living at the Maison du Père (MDP) for several months will be able to move in in September.
Apartment in the Ville-Marie (VM) district
Ideally located in the entertainment district and close to all the services of the Complexe Desjardins, this apartment impresses with its brightness: a large bay window floods the apartment with sunlight. Located on the ground floor with an access ramp for people with reduced mobility.
Apartment in the Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve (MHM) borough
Located near the Honoré-Beaugrand metro station and all the amenities on Hochelaga Street, this superb new apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood and benefits from a beautiful garden-level terrace and a shared rooftop terrace. This apartment was also chosen for its easy access for an elderly person.
On May 9, 2025, only 5 months after starting its activities, Toit à moi (TÀM) purchased its first condominium near the Frontenac metro station in order to socialize it and make it affordable.
The Gauthier Family Foundation donated the $300,000 needed for this first acquisition.
For a first-time tenant, TÀM partnered with Le Chaînon. Nicola, in her sixties and of Jamaican origin, has been living in a condo built last year since July 1st. And with a rent supplement program obtained by Le Chaînon and managed by the Office d’habitation de Montréal (OMHM), Nicola will pay less than $300 per month to live in an exceptional environment and resume her life.
The apartment was sold fully furnished, with designer decor, by the former owners who were moved that their condo was now serving a person rebuilding their life.
With the Chaînon team, we will be there for Nicola!
