Our Needs

OOHC has a strong focus on the general and sexual health of the LGBTQS2+ community and men who have sex with men.

Many of the services we offer are not covered by the Manitoba provincial health plan. Charitable donations are crucial to bring these services to the people who otherwise could not afford them.

Charitable donations allow us to:

• Provide programming and services around healthy sexuality

  • Offer free rapid HIV testing

  • Education on safer sexual practices

  • New ways of preventing HIV

• Mental Health counselling for our patients who cannot afford it

• Diabetes counseling and smoking cessation programs

• Pay our rent

Examples of our Costs

• Each free brief therapy course for a patient in need costs around ~$1000.

• Each HIV test we provide for free to the general public at Pride and other events costs ~$16.

• Each cycle of our new outpatient program to help crystal meth users reduce or eliminate use of this dangerous drug costs ~$25,000.

• To keep the OOHC clinic open, with 
non-hurried appointments for our patients, cannot be funded only from doctors’ fees. 
The OOHC charity needs to subsidize our rent.
