The Ontario Finnish Resthome Association

The Ontario Finnish Resthome Association Providing a home for seniors with resident-centered care while prioritizing quality of life. We pride ourselves in being "Homes with a Heart".

The OFRA is a non-profit charitable organization founded in Sept. 1971. It originated with a group of Finnish individuals whose goal was to build a home for seniors of Finnish & Estonian descent. While OFRA continues to honor it's Finnish & Estonian roots, over the past 4 decades it has evolved into what could be described as a microcosm of the "Canadian Experience". Today the OFRA is a mosaic of diverse cultures, a retirement community offering safe and affordable housing to all seniors in the Algoma district. We operate under the guiding principle that each resident be provided with the best environment possible within which they are able to maintain an optimum level of functioning and maximize the quality of their daily life.

🎄 Christmas Jingle from the Foundation 🎄

The bells are ringing, Christmas is near,
Our Foundation office will pause for good cheer.
On Christmas Eve at noon we will close,
To celebrate the season with family and friends.

We’ll reopen our doors on Monday, December 29th at 8:30 a.m.,
Ready to serve and continue the good we do best!

If giving is on your heart before year-end draws near,
Your generous support makes a difference all year.
A gift made today, both big or small,
Helps strengthen our mission and care for all.

Thank you for kindness, for faith, and for cheer—
And for standing with us throughout the year.
Wishing you Christmas joy, peace, and light,
And a blessed New Year, shining bright! ✨
