A Place Where People Belong
The Gate is a drop-in centre welcoming people aged 26 and above, of differing cultures and life situations. Many patrons affectionately refer to The Gate as their "home."
What We Do
We are an outreach centre in Oshawa, ON for individuals experiencing homelessness. Our centre attracts people of all ages, cultures, and life situations.
Drop-In Shelter
Our centre is a safe and welcoming place for all individuals. We are a Christian organization and seek to reflect God's love to all who enter our doors.
Basic Provisions
We provide clients with the basic necessities they may be lacking, including food, water, clothing, and shelter.
Medical Services
Clients have access to several healthcare services, including basic healthcare, and foot care.
At The Gate we aspire to be the hands and feet of Jesus, and a light in our community.

I’ve been coming here for over 5 years. If I need anything like socks or clothes – they have been there for me. If I need to talk to someone – they are there, oh and food and laundry too.
