To find out more information, register to walk, donate or volunteer, please visit https://cnoy.org/location/lloydminster. Your support is greatly appreciated. This is the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Men's Shelter so please help us meet our target. We hope to see you out participating or cheering us on this Saturday.
It's cold out there, and on February 24th, together with thousands of Canadians across the country, we will be walking united to raise awareness and support for Canadians that are hungry, homeless and hurting. Proceeds from this event go directly in support of the Lloydminster Men's Shelter. The Men's Shelter supports marginalized individuals in our community by providing shelter for up to 28 to adult men, supplying 50 - 100 meals a day to anyone coming to the shelter as well as warm clothing and outreach services to anyone in need. The Men's Shelter is a place of last resort for many men struggling with mental health and addiction issues that have been unable to access services that they desperately require. Help us support this vulnerable population in our community by Walking / Donating / Volunteering. Your support is greatly needed and appreciated.
Coldest Night of the Year 2018 is set for February 24th! The site goes live tomorrow, we hope you will all come and join us for the fun.
