SURREY AND WHITE ROCK, BC – February 15, 2023 – After two years of virtual walking, Sources Community Resources Society (SOURCES) is fired up to hold the Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY) walk in-person this year. CNOY is an annual nation-wide fundraiser, with SOURCES carrying the torch for White Rock/South Surrey. This family-friendly event will take place on Saturday, February 25 at the White Rock Promenade.
Brrr… it’ s cold out there! To ensure that community members who are hungry, homeless and hurting receive the help they need to stay safe and warm this winter and beyond, SOURCES is hosting our 8th annual Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY) to raise awareness and money for our social wellness programs. This year’ s CNOY will be a VIRTUAL-ONLY EVENT taking place Friday, February 19 to Sunday, February 21, 2021. Anytime during that three-day period, we encourage you to complete your 2km/5km WALK in your own community, following the recommendations of our Provincial Health Officer and local health authorities. We acknowledge that this event and our work takes place on the traditional and unceded territory of the Coast Salish People, specifically the Kwantlen, Katzie and Semiahmoo First Nations.
SOURCES is encouraging White Rock residents to bundle up and raise cold, hard cash for the Coldest Night of the Year (WALK). The annual family-friendly winter fundraising event will take place on Saturday, February 23, 2019, and SOURCES is hosting it for the sixth year in a row.
