2024 AGM for Progressive Housing Society
Agency Updates

2024 AGM

The fiscal year spanning April 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024, was a transformative and reflective time for Progressive Housing Society, one that celebrated milestones, strengthened our vision, and deepened our understanding of the daily moments that define our success. Our Annual General Meeting, held virtually on October 22, 2024, provided the opportunity to honor these accomplishments and plan for the future.

This year, we proudly celebrated the opening of Ledger Place, our long-anticipated supportive housing building. This moment marked not only the culmination of years of dedication and effort but also a vital step toward addressing the housing needs of our community. The launch of Ledger Place is a testament to the collective resilience and vision of everyone involved, from our staff to our partners and supporters.

Another key focus this year was our strategic planning process. Through a comprehensive environmental scan, we gathered valuable insights into how we are performing as an organization and identified opportunities to grow and adapt to emerging challenges. This effort engaged our entire community—clients, staff, management, and the Board—and provided a unique window into the daily lives and experiences that shape our work. The lessons we learned reaffirmed that our greatest successes often happen in the quiet moments: a kind word, timely support, or a meal served with care.

The virtual AGM was an occasion to celebrate not only large-scale achievements but also the everyday successes that define Progressive Housing Society. It was an opportunity to reflect on the strength of our team, the resilience of those we serve, and the partnerships that enable us to meet our mission. We took time to honor the dedication and adaptability of our staff, volunteers, and community members, whose efforts make our work possible.

As highlighted by the Board of Directors, this year reminded us that success is not solely measured by grand events like the opening of a new building but also by the countless small actions that happen every day in our organization. From a supportive conversation to preventing an eviction, these moments are the building blocks of progress and hope.

Looking ahead, we are excited to build on the insights and momentum of the past year. Progressive Housing Society remains steadfast in its commitment to creating a community where everyone has access to safe, affordable housing and the resources they need to thrive. We are grateful to our members, staff, and stakeholders for their unwavering support and partnership.

A heartfelt thank you goes to our staff—your hard work, compassion, and dedication are the foundation of everything we achieve. Each action you take, big or small, makes a difference in the lives of those we serve and helps us bring our mission to life. We are profoundly grateful for your unwavering commitment and resilience, and we look forward to continuing this vital work together.
