Coldest Night of the Year
Imagine you had no roof over your head and it is the middle of the winter, it’s cold, it’s damp and it’s unfriendly. This is what thousands of people who are homeless experience in the winter. There is no place for them to go to get shelter and warmth. On February 28th we will experience this cold on a smaller level but will get a taste of what people who are homeless are up against. Together with thousands of Canadians across the country, we will be walking and fundraising to support people experiencing homelessness, hurt and hunger in our community.
Join us February 28th as we walk to make a difference. To register to walk or volunteer go to CNOY.org/orillia
