Coldest Night of the Year Results are in!

Lynn Valley United Church's Coldest Night of the Year team, the Lynn Valley Amblers took part in this year's event on February 24, and their fundraising results are in! The team was proud to be able to collect $6,750! Raised by 12 team members, the donations came from 78 sponsors, including 21 from the congregation. Very impressive! 

The money goes to support First United, which enjoyed its best year ever in this event: $112,750 at last count. The team is pleased to announce it is the fifth-highest fundraiser out of 30 teams that were raising funds for First United to support their work on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.

LVUC's team was excited to join the rest of the Coldest Night of the Year walkers across Canada as they remind their communities that the hungry and hurting are not alone or overlooked, and that they can inspire year-round caring!

If you'd still like to donate to the Lynn Valley Amblers, you can do so here until March 31, 2024 or give cash or cheques to Judith Clark or any other team member (cheques should be made out to “Coldest Night of the Year” with “Lynn Valley Amblers” in the subject line).
