My Message

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 YOUTH experiencing hurt, hunger, and homelessness in my community.

The Cowichan Valley has an estimated 400 individuals that are unhoused or precariously housed (couch surfing, living in vehicles). As housing becomes more scarce and less affordable, these numbers are increasing. Unfortunately, many of those individuals are youth. At a time in their lives when they need stability, direction and support, they have none. Some have left foster care or unhealthy family situations, some have disabilities and many struggle with trauma that we can't even begin to imagine. During the Coldest Night of the Year, we walk to raise funds for safe spaces and programming to support homeless youth in our community.

How can we help? We can start by providing a safe place for youth to drop in. We can start by listening while we provide the basics such as a warm meal, medical attention, a warm shower and clean clothes. We can learn about what they need and direct them to resources in the community. We could provide shelter and a soft place to land in hard times. The goal is to provide the vital connection needed to change the course of their lives - and you can help by joining me Saturday, February 22nd, 2025 for the Coldest Night of the Year.

Please, give generously by clicking the "Donate Now" button above. Thanks!
