“This project is about so much more than a building. It’s about connection and dignity.
When those we serve feel perpetually like trespassers in their own city, it can be a place of belonging; a place of respite from everyday survival to participate in healing through ceremony, friendship and support; a place of beauty that shows the people we serve that they matter.”
— Jordan Reiniger, Executive Director,
Boyle Street Community Services.
okimaw peyesew kamik has been made possible through the generous contributions of hundreds of individuals, businesses, and government. It is a true reflection of what can be accomplished through community-driven effort.

Having raised $45 million through the Build With Boyle campaign and with construction now complete, we are focused on raising funds for an endowment at the Edmonton Community Foundation to ensure long-term financial stability for the facility's vital services and operations.
Thanks to EPCOR for kicking off that fundraising with a $375,000 match which helped us raise over $1 million!
