Shelterlink Youth Services

Coldest Night of the Year

The Coldest Night of the Year is our annual winterrific family-friendly fundraising walk that supports Shelterlink and the Stratford Connection Center.  Last year, thanks to the incredible generosity of 464 walkers and 2,556 donors, we raised an astounding $209,914, the fifth-highest total in Canada! This year, we raised $222,842 and had 499 walkers!

Let’s change the tune for people experiencing hurt, hunger, and homelessness… because it’s cold out there. Join us next year on February 28, 2026 – team up, fundraise, and walk with us!
