Coldest Night of the Year

Brrr… it’s cold out there… but our hearts are warm! SOURCES’ 8th annual Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY) was an incredible and unprecedented success, raising more than double our original goal of $100,000. As of March 1, 2021, more than $229,000 has been fundraised, ranking our White Rock location #2 in the country out of 149 participating communities!

This year’s VIRTUAL-ONLY EVENT took place across the weekend of Friday, February 19 to Sunday, February 21, 2021. Anytime during that three-day period, participants walked in their own community, following public health recommendations.

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.

About Our Cause

The Coldest Night of the Year raises money to support charities that serve those experiencing hunger, hurt and homelessness. This year, funds raised from SOURCES’ CNOY event will be directed to our Comfort and Care During COVID-19 response fund, and in turn will be distributed strategically to our programs and services that are in most critical need during the pandemic. These include: our Food Banks in White Rock/South Surrey and Langley, Housing and Advocacy Services (including Homelessness Prevention Services and Rent Bank), Volunteer Services and Counselling/Mental Health Services.

Thank you for your warm-hearted support!
