Residents in Greater Moncton are being encouraged to bundle up and walk in support of homeless youth.
This is the eighth year for the Coldest Night of the Year event, for Youth Impact.
Associate Director Tracy Cormier says the walk will be held virtually due to the pandemic.
She adds your help is needed more than ever this year, “The pandemic certainly hasn’t slowed homelessness down and it is increasingly difficult during these times for the youth that they serve.”
Cormier says the number of youth they see is around the same, but the need for meals they are providing everyday has gone up, “There has been a huge increase in food need, at least double if not more. We are handing out bagged lunches everyday, and we are providing hot meals everyday. Before we only had the one hot meal a week.”
