Event Report: Care for All Canada at Adam House
Skincare Product Distribution & Community Engagement Event

Date of Event: July 28, 2025 

Location: Adam House North, Toronto, ON 
Organized by: Care for All Canada Inc. 

Overview

On July 28, Care for All Canada partnered with Adam House to host a skincare and wound care product distribution event for refugee claimants currently residing at or supported by the Adam House community. This initiative was part of our ongoing commitment to health equity and compassionate care through the provision of essential dermatologic products to marginalized populations. 

Adam House, a faith-based ministry with a profound legacy rooted in the compassion and vision of Salah and Shaline Adam, provided a welcoming and warm space for this event. It was an honour to contribute to their mission of supporting newcomers to Canada with grace and dignity. 

Activities and Engagement

• Skincare Distribution:
  We distributed a curated selection of skincare products including moisturizers, cleansers, sunscreens, and products tailored for sensitive or dry skin. These items were chosen with refugee health needs in mind, recognizing the impact of climate change, stress, and transition on skin health. 
  

• One-on-One Conversations:
  Our volunteers engaged residents in casual conversations to understand their skincare needs, answer questions, and offer basic guidance on product use. This created an open, friendly environment rooted in dignity and mutual respect. 
  

• Resource Sharing:
  We provided handouts and information on free and low-barrier healthcare options, including community clinics and dermatology support in Toronto. 
  

Community Impact

• Residents Served: 6
  

• Products Distributed: >30
  

• Languages Spoken: Arabic, Persian, and English
  

The feedback from participants was overwhelmingly positive. Many expressed appreciation not only for the products but also for the gesture of care and recognition during what can be an isolating and uncertain time. Volunteers from both Adam House and Care for All Canada reflected on the shared sense of purpose and connection the event fostered. 

Reflections and Next Steps

This event was a meaningful step in our mission to extend dermatologic care beyond clinical walls and into the hands of those most in need. Adam House’s warm hospitality and spiritual foundation made it a perfect partner for this outreach. We look forward to exploring future collaborations, including repeat visits, seasonal product drops, or even health-focused workshops. 

We extend our gratitude to the staff and residents of Adam House for welcoming us so warmly, and to the legacy of Salah and Shaline Adam, whose vision continues to impact lives with compassion and faith.
