Transforming Homes, Strengthening Communities

Join us in creating a greener Toronto with community-led home upgrades that improve health and lower environmental impact.

Toronto Home Retrofits (THR) grew out of the Pocket Change Project in 2022, driven by passionate residents committed to a sustainable future. Now, as an incorporated non-profit, we support community-led retrofitting initiatives that help residents create healthier homes and improve our environment.

We are recruiting new Board members!

We are launching programs with Partner Communities across Toronto, organizing workshops and outreach events. We provide communities with tailored resources, help them connect homeowners with technical advisors, and advocate for accessible retrofitting pathways that make it easier for residents to upgrade their homes.

Learn about our community programs and how they work.

Directly, or through Partner Communities, we offer a range of resources to support homeowners in their retrofitting journey. These resources include practical guides, stories of homeowners who completed retrofits, and a listing of experts who can help you create a healthier, more sustainable home.

Discover our homeowner resources.

"We wanted to do whatever we could to reduce the carbon pollution from our house, especially after learning it was emitting about 4.7 tonnes of greenhouse gases per year.
We replaced our gas furnace with a cold climate heat pump and changed our gas water heater to a heat pump water heater—these initiatives lowered our emissions to one tonne. Our other actions further reduced them, and the result is a comfortable, healthy, zero-emissions home!”
