Coldest Night of the Year

On February 24, 2024, the Tri-Region has something to celebrate—and so could you!

That is the night folks in the Tri-Region will join thousands of others in 200+ cities across Canada in “The Coldest Night of the Year”, a 5k winter walk for Parkland Food Bank Society; supporting people experiencing hunger.

Our goal is to raise $86,000 with the support of 35+ teams and 245+ walkers.

There are two ways you can support:

· Sponsorship:  See next page

· Participation:  Would you consider engaging with this event by registering a company team and recruiting 8-10 employees to walk and raise money with us that night?

The WALK is something special. It’s fun, challenging and meaningful. Parkland Food Bank is also something special and its work and service in our community is essential. Please consider joining us by walking and sponsoring this great event.
