VICTORIA An annual event aimed at raising money and awareness around poverty and homelessness has gone virtual this year and you’re encouraged to join in this weekend. The “Coldest Night of the Year” fundraiser is a COVID-safe, family-friendly walk to raise money for charities serving people experiencing homelessness, hurt, and hunger. The Our Place Society is one of many organizations taking part across the country. All proceeds from the local fundraiser will stay in the community, helping feed those in need, provide showers and support programs and extend the hours of operation for Our Place, especially during the winter months.
