WGYB History
We Got Your Back is a community event started in 2014 to help people living on the streets of Montreal survive our harsh winters.
We walk the streets of Montreal to find people who are unsheltered, unhoused and/or homeless who are in need of help and assistance.
We offer backpacks filled with essentials and a meal. We deliver them with the goal of letting people know they are not alone and that someone has their back.
As of 2024 We Got Your Back is a program offered by the West Island Assistance Fund.
This collaboration allows We Got Your Back to create tax donation receipts for our donators, distribute more backpacks, distribute more than once a year, and much more!
Our backpack distributions will now take place in the West Island, as well as our regular downtown routes in Montreal.
