Do Good Donuts and Cafe

Do Good Donuts and Cafe operates a social enterprise in Toronto that sells donuts and coffee while employing people facing barriers to traditional employment, including those experiencing homelessness, poverty, and mental health challenges. The cafe provides not just a job, but comprehensive training, mentorship, and support services that help participants build skills and confidence to pursue long-term employment.
