At Haven, our goal is to Make the World a Safer Place. We have created a Campus Safety app that helps reduce violence and sexual assault used by thousands of students across Canada. Over the past year, we have also been featured on blogTO, CBC, City TV, and more!
In May 2022, we started the Haven High School Impact Initiative, allowing high school students from across Ontario to help make the world safer. We offer Volunteer Hours for all of these activities.
Here's what you can do to simultaneously help and get hours!
- Download the 'Haven - Safety Alert and Locator' app and Create an Account (2 Hours)
- Leave a review for the 'Haven - Safety Alert and Locator' (4 Hours)
- Refer friends to join the Haven High School Impact Initiative (2 Hours For Each Referral)

Mission Statement
Haven is inspired by our goal of utilizing the powers of technology to make people feel safe when faced with sexual assault or physical violence on university and college campuses. 63% of university students have experienced sexual assault or harassment (Government of Ontario). Eleven million Canadians over the age of 15 have experienced physical or sexual assault at least once in their lives (Statistics Canada). In our internal survey with over 250 respondents, we found that over 80% of women felt unsafe outside their homes at night without friends or family. Existing solutions, such as rape whistles, have not had the effect of curbing sexual assaults to a significant enough extent that people feel secure in relying on these tools. Haven makes keeping yourself safe easy.
Description
Haven is a safety expert-approved app used by students to quickly connect with loved ones and the police in emergency situations.
With Haven, students have a 'Swiss Army Knife' of safety on them at all times, perfect for when they feel uneasy or need help immediately.
