It's cold out there and I'm walking to create some warmth! On February 26, together with thousands of Canadians across the country, I'll be walking and fundraising to support people and families experiencing houselessness, hurt, and hunger.
Usually my winter walking is recreational. So great for body and spirit to be out in all weather - comfortable and happy in good winter boots and wool socks, merino layers, gloves and toque - walking the river valley with my well-fed dog.
But for too many people our 'great outdoors' is a desolate and dangerous place, the nights so long when you've got nowhere safe to go during an endless Edmonton winter. In our community of downtown Edmonton, the Bissell Centre provides warmth and support in so many ways.
