Merger: Increasing Stability and Growth

Evangel Hall MissionNews

After a year of cooperative planning, we are thrilled to announce that Portland Place and EHM officially merged on January 1st, 2022!

We have become a stronger, united entity with a shared mission to better serve our communities. Together, we can enhance our services and infrastructure more effectively than ever before. Tenants will benefit in numerous ways, including:

  • A bigger, more integrated team. At Portland Place, there will now be more staff and volunteers on site, as well as new opportunities for tenants to access community supports.
  • Active pooling of resources. This will save money on equipment and supplies, accelerating solutions for critical repairs in both buildings.

Importantly, there has already been an incredible amount of support among tenants, who actively participated in the voting process and advocated for our merger with enthusiasm. Also, we will certainly be keeping the name “Portland Place,” to honour its unique culture, community, and history.

We are delighted to share this milestone with our community of support! Thank you for everything. With your help, we will continue to provide the same high standards of service and care for tenants, and anyone else in need who passes through our doors.
