Our House is an identity-affirming space for people who identify as Black, Indigenous, Multiracial, People of Colour, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Two Spirit, Queer/Questioning, Intersex, Asexual/Agender, plus many more identities! We stand behind our Respect Policy: www.mpnh.org/RespectingNeighbours


$10 suggested donation, sliding scale

Donate online, or in person (cash or cheque only)


Please join us for a clothing share event to raise funds for our House!

Shirts & Tops | Pants & Bottoms | One-Piece Outfits | Shoes | Accessories

Please bring yourself, and any clean, gently-used clothing you’d like to swap (preferably washed using unscented detergent)—or just bring yourself. Please contact Jenny if you’d like to donate plus-size clothing in advance. We’re unable to accept clothing donations without making advance arrangements.

Everyone is encouraged to wear shorts and a top to make it easy to try things on quickly. We’ll also have change areas set up, and folks are welcome to use the single-stall all-gender restrooms, or multi-stall gendered washrooms to try on clothing.

Accessibility Details

Our House is located one block away from the 99 B-Line, and the #8 and #9 buses. The first and second floors are fully wheelchair accessible.

There are single stall, all-gender, wheelchair accessible washrooms on the first and second floors, as well as multi-stall gendered washrooms.

We are a scent-reduced space to help support the wellbeing of neighbours with sensitivities. As much as possible, please try to avoid wearing scented products for this event, and wash clothing you’re wearing and sharing using unscented detergent.

We have free WiFi for guests, which may impact those with electromagnetic sensitivities.
