My Story…
My new fundraising goal for this race is 400 dollars, which is the cost to move two families. I am running a half marathon for the first time because I want to help people move out of abusive situations. I volunteer with Shelter Movers and I believe the work that they do is very important. Please consider supporting me on my run and supporting Shelter Movers.
Description
Shelter Movers is the only service of its kind in Canada, operating in Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa and Halifax Regional Municipality. Over 500+ volunteers across the country create a safe and empowering space for survivors of abuse to transition to a better life. Growing evidence suggests a significant long-term societal benefit when the cycle of violence is broken. Shelter Movers takes on the logistical, security and financial burden of moving and storing survivors’ belongings, allowing local social services (shelters, police and hospitals) to focus on their primary objectives. Shelter Movers partners with in excess of 60 shelters and agencies in the cities we serve, and since being established in 2016, we have completed over 1100 moves across Canada.
