My Story…
Hi! I have been volunteering with Shelter Movers Nova Scotia for over a year and to support this essential charity, I am completing a virtual run for the 2021 Blue Nose Marathon.
Over the past year, domestic violence has been at an all time high with Covid-19. Shelter Movers is an organization that provides free moving services for survivors of abuse. This vital service costs Shelter Movers $200 to move one family. Let’s work together to end gender-based violence!

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.
