It's cold out there. And this February, I'm going to do something about it. Together with thousands of Canadians across the country, I'll be walking and fundraising to support people and families experiencing hurt, hunger, and homelessness in my community. Please, give generously by clicking the "Donate Now" button above. Thanks!
This event has always been close to my heart and have participated in it every year in Stratford with the exception of 2020 when I was doing Street Outreach in East Vancouver on Hastings Street. I have been homeless and experienced the coldest nights of the year with nowhere to go to get warm. Today I am priviledged to work towards helping others not have that be their reality.
The problem of homelessness has only gotten worse and our numbers continue to climb. The colder nights seem to be colder and the risks are greater. Please help me to help others so that we can keep more people warm and healthier.
Thank you for your support.
