Michael St. Jean Realty is proud to support Step Up for Wayside 2026, an annual community walk raising awareness and funds for men’s addiction treatment and recovery through Wayside House of Hamilton.
We invite our clients, friends, families and neighbours to join us for a meaningful morning of community support. Together, we can help raise awareness of Wayside’s work and show the men on their journey to recovery that their community is behind them.
About Wayside House of Hamilton
Established in 1967, Wayside House of Hamilton is a not-for-profit organization providing live-in addiction treatment to adult men from across Ontario. Its approach combines personalized care, education and support to help people work toward recovery and lead purposeful lives.
Wayside’s support extends beyond its live-in treatment program. Through supportive housing, continuing care and family programming, the organization helps participants build support networks as they move forward in their recovery.
These are fathers, brothers, sons, neighbours and friends. Supporting their recovery is an opportunity to stand alongside people in our community with compassion, encouragement and hope.
Join Us at Step Up for Wayside
Date: Saturday, October 17, 2026

Why We’re Stepping Up
At Michael St. Jean Realty, our commitment to the community extends beyond helping people buy and sell homes. We care about the people who live here and the organizations working to make a difference in their lives.
We believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and to have access to support when they need it. Supporting Step Up for Wayside is one way we can put those values into action while helping bring attention to an important local organization.
We’re proud to stand alongside the Wayside House team, volunteers and supporters in support of this year’s event.
