The Gift of a Thanksgiving Meal
Antony’s journey is a powerful example of resilience and hope. After dedicating over 20 years to his job, an unexpected layoff left him without a home, forcing him to live out of his car. The loss of stability and isolation triggered severe mental health challenges, making even everyday tasks feel unbearable.
After a couple of years without a home, exhausted and with nowhere else to turn, he arrived at the Men’s Mission. Not wanting to spend another night on the street, thanks to donors like you, Antony was introduced to a variety of supports.

“During a time when I felt like I had nothing, the Men’s Mission gave me something to be thankful for,ˮ he said. “On a day everyone else is celebrating, it did a lot for me mentally.ˮ
With continued support, Antony is now working toward stable housing and employment.
Even though it’s August, Thanksgiving preparations are already underway at Mission Services of London. Holidays are always busy times, as we strive to make the season as special as possible for our neighbours in need.
For many, Thanksgiving is a time of gratitude, yet for men like Antony, it can highlight loneliness and hardship. Your donation right now helps give the gift of a nutritious meal and crucial support for someone in our community this Thanksgiving.
