Women’s shelters in Canada need our support now more than ever to fund their life-saving and life-changing work. As we emerge from the COVID pandemic, shelters across the country are reporting rising rates of domestic violence and more women than ever who are reaching out for help. While most of our lives have returned to normal, there are women and children in all corners of the country who are now fleeing the danger within their homes and working to rebuild their future after experiencing domestic violence.  

Our team member, Stacey Morris, went to Ecuador in November of 2023 to trek for 5 days to one of the highest active volcanoes in the world! During this high-altitude adventure, she hiked long days across varied terrain in unpredictable mountain weather. Stacey camped in a tent and went without cell service, electricity, bathroom facilities, and other comforts of home. This trek was not easy but it was immensely worthwhile. Each step she took and every dollar she raised supported courageous women and children in our community who are seeking safety and hope for a life free from abuse.

Thank you to everyone who helped Stacey raise $6,020 towards this worthy cause! 

The next Trek for Shelter will be happening in 2025. Stay tuned for more information.
