The Mission & Outreach Committee of Faith Lutheran Church Port Elgin has chosen “Coldest Night of the Year” as its February appeal.
The Coldest Night of the Year fundraiser on February 28th, in partnership with the Southampton Rotary Club, is dedicated to supporting individuals and families in Saugeen Shores and Saugeen First Nation who face the challenges of poverty.
Proceeds will benefit one of United Way Bruce Grey’s key initiatives, ‘From Poverty to Possibility’, which funds programs addressing food insecurity, utility assistance, homelessness, and school supplies for students from low-income households. These efforts aim to create lasting change and offer hope for a brighter future.
Faith Lutheran Church has entered a Team, but you don’t have to walk if you don’t want to ???? Should you wish to contribute to help this amazing fundraiser, there are 4 options available:
