About the Waterloo House


Welcome to the new Guest House in the prestigious Old Westmount neighborhood of Waterloo! The main floor invites you into a spacious living room with a gas fireplace and dining room with sliding doors to a mature, garden enclosed by a living fence. The functional kitchen with large walk-in pantry is located on the main floor as well as laundry, that connects to the oversized garage. Upstairs discover three generously sized bedrooms; one provides a walk-in closet while another offers double closets and a private balcony overlooking the tree-lined street. The largest bedroom is massive and versatile enough for siblings to comfortably sharing. The house has a family bathroom on the second floor and another washroom on the main floor.

Empire Public School and Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School near here. Walking distance to Iron Horse Trail system, Belmont Village for dining and steps from Westmount Golf & Country Club.


Tenants of the House are required to pay rent.  Rent is due on a month to month basis.  There is no deposit or last month rent required.  Rent includes accommodations and utilities.  The cost of rent depends on the size of the apartment and bedrooms in the apartment.  Grassroots has attempted to keep the rents as low as possible, with the goal being to simply cover the costs of operating the House.

Step 1.
For Ukrainian newcomers

 

Якщо ви прибули з України по програмі CUAET та потребуєте тимчасове житло,

зробіть Крок 1 - заповніть нашу форму реєстрації (Форма прийому для українських сімей). Тільки після заповнення форми ми з вами звяжемося щодо пошуку необхідного житла.

//

If you have arrived from Ukraine under the CUAET program and need temporary accommodation, take Step 1 - fill out our registration form (Intake Form for Ukrainian Families). Only after completing the form, we will contact you regarding the search for the necessary accommodation.

Donate Financially as well Furniture

We need financial donations to make sure families get housing even when they can't afford it. We also need furniture donations and household items to make Ukrainians feel more as at home.

Hosting

We are always looking for people willing to open up their homes to Ukrainians fleeing the war.  Some hosts have a sofa bed and can offer emergency hosting only, others have a spare room and are able to host for longer periods. Complete our application form to speak with a volunteer.

Volunteer

We currently need assistance with coordinating donations, fundraising and ensuring we have enough people to help with the settlement of Ukrainian guests. We believe strongly that in order to ensure these families get off on the right foot they need to feel like they belong.

Rentals

We are looking for landlords or people able to rent space that understand Ukrainians families will not be able to show a credit history, will most likely not have employment right away, and may not speak English.
