Big turnout for Red Deer’s ‘Coldest Night of the Year’ national walk for homelessness
Red Deer was one of 120 communities across Canada on Saturday evening to help raise awareness and support for our community’s most vulnerable.
Hosted by the Mustard Seed, the ‘Coldest Night of the Year’ national walk for homelessness saw 169 walkers, 32 teams and 48 volunteers take part in Red Deer, raising $27,033 for Mustard Seed programs in the process.
Byron Bradley, Managing Director for the Mustard Seed in Central Alberta, says that’s up from 95 walkers last year and surpasses their $25,000 fundraising goal.
