We Got Your Back

People helping people since 2014

About Us

We Got Your Back is a community event started in 2014 to help people living on the streets of Montreal survive our harsh winters.

We walk the streets of Montreal to find people who are unsheltered, unhoused and/or homeless who are in need of help and assistance.

We offer backpacks filled with essentials and a meal. We deliver them with the goal of letting people know they are not alone and that someone has their back.

Collaboration with the WIAF

As of 2024 We Got Your Back is a program offered by the West Island Assistance Fund.

This collaboration allows We Got Your Back to create tax donation receipts for our donators, distribute more backpacks, distribute more than once a year, and much more…

To distribute our backpacks in the West Island of Montreal, we have partnered with Ricochet and AJOI. Day to day their shelter and street workers take in and help those facing homelessness, and the hardest of circumstances, we could not think of anyone better to help us distribute in the West!
