Our Redline Recovery Counselling × Pursuit Climbing team is proud to return to the Stratford Coldest Night of the Year for our fourth year in a row! What started as a small group of runners has grown into a large group of dedicated community members committed to supporting those experiencing youth and adult homelessness in Stratford.

.

Every year, our team has grown, more runners, more kilometres, and more funds raised. Last year we pushed ourselves to 14 km and raised $3,400 for Stratford Connection Centre and Shelterlink Youth Services, two organizations many of us have personally worked with and care deeply about.

.

This year, we want to go even further. 2025 Goal= $4,000 raised and an even longer team run! We’re continuing our distance-for-donations challenge:

.

$1,000 raised = 5 km run

.

Every additional $250 = 1 km

.

This year our fundraising goal is $4000 which will be 17km!

.

We fundraise together and complete the run together. Our team grows each year, and so does our impact. Let’s do even more this year!If you believe in strengthening mental health supports, lifting up vulnerable youth, and helping those facing homelessness, we’d love your support.

.

Join us, donate, share our story, or come join our team,everyone is welcome. While the bulk amount of the team completes all the km, we are an accesible group and want everyone to join and run as far as they are able!

.

Redline Recovery Counselling provides accessible mental health support focused on men’s health, frontline worker wellness, and youth mental health, helping individuals push past their limits and strengthen their wellbeing.

Pursuit Climbing is a community gathering space for fitness, connection, and group interaction, bringing people together to challenge themselves, build relationships, and grow.
