FAQ | Love Toronto

Our programs are available for anyone regardless of your location. There are people reaching us from outside of Toronto such as Ottawa, Niagara, and London as well.

Love Toronto is a non-profit charitable organization established in 2016 by MilAl church. We aim to help and take care of Korean immigrants suffering with settling in Canada. Following our vision, we are offering any necessary assistance for Korean community as we named it “Love Toronto”. We are operating four main programs which may not be found from other Korean charitable organizations: Medical Consultation, Psychotherapeutic Counseling, Legal Counseling, and ADP. Those medical consultation, psychotherapeutic counseling, and legal counseling programs are provided through the efforts of volunteering professionals. In doing so, it is possible for Love Toronto to provide exceptional services.
