My Story…
A few months ago I decided to shake things up a bit. I’ve made a lot of positive life changes over the last five years, but it was time to tackle that goal I had been putting off: improving my physical fitness. I was lucky to be invited to join Team Myles with the Blue Nose Marathon, and with the help of Team Myles’ sponsors, coaches, mentors and my fellow ambassadors, I’m on track to not only run my first 10k, but also to run the 5k race as well. I won’t be the fastest, but I’ll have come a pretty long way (literally and metaphorically) and I’m really excited to give ‘er.
If you’re able, please consider showing your support for me and my run(s) by making a donation (large or small) to Shelter Movers, a charity that provides moving and storage services free of charge to individuals and families fleeing abuse and violence. Thank you!!!
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.
