It's cold out there...
On February 28th, I am participating in Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY), a 5 km walk that raises money for folks in our community who need our help. In Thunder Bay, money raised supports "Grace Place", a local shelter that does a lot more than just offer a warm bed out of the bitter cold.
The first time I participated in the Coldest Night of the Year two years ago, I was completely blown away by seeing their facility. A former store in the downtown core, Grace Place provides many services for those in hard times…some homeless, some struggling with mental illness, and some fighting drug additions.
A warm meal, clean pyjamas for the night, a laundry service, a hair cut/shave, access to clothing donations, a nutritious breakfast, and a lunch-to-go. These are only some of the services Grace Place provided.
Please help me in supporting this worthy organization. Every dollar helps. Click on the "Donate Now" button above to give. Thank you!
