Cool Aid.

Providing care and connection.

For more than 50 years, Cool Aid has been connecting people in need with the necessities to live healthier, happier lives. From emergency shelter and permanent housing to primary health care and nutritious meals, Cool Aid offers life-changing services to thousands of people in the capital region each year. 

Every Smile Matters

Help us raise $50,000 for essential dental care!
From now until the end of February, your gift will be matched.

The Cool Aid Dental Clinic provides essential oral healthcare to some of the most vulnerable members of our community. Many of our clients live with complex health and social challenges, including trauma histories, substance use, low literacy, and language barriers. These challenges require additional time, care, and administrative support, which increases costs and reduces overall revenues compared to private dental practices.

Affordable Market Rentals

Living in the capital region has become increasingly unaffordable for many people. Cool Aid offers affordable market rentals at Crosstown, The Chestnut, and Mount Edwards. All three locations provide individuals and families the dignity and security that comes with a place to call home.
