Story

Support ACORN Institute Canada to support tenants organizing for their rights! Every dollar raised helps low-income renters organize tenant leadership schools.

Housing is a human right, but across Canada, tenants are being pushed out of their homes due to unaffordable rent hikes, renovictions, and predatory landlords. ACORN Institute Canada builds Leaders to know their rights and win change by developing the skills to organize.

These victories don’t happen overnight. They happen because tenants learn what they are capable of, learn their rights, and learn how to participate civically.

Your donation will equip communities with the skills and resources they need through learning tenant rights and leadership training to lead everyday people toward organizing in their communities and beyond.
