St. John’s Anglican Church in North Vancouver is proud to bring you The Long, Long Night of Hope 2018, a fundraiser in support of The Lookout Emergency Aid Society Shelter on the North Shore!
The homelessness count is in, and the number of people living on the streets or in shelters has gone up by 30% in just three years. On top of that, an estimated one-third of all homeless people live in their cars, unable to afford the skyrocketing housing costs in the Lower Mainland. These people need our help, and The Long, Long Night of Hope is one way you can get involved!
In early 2017 with just seven participants, we raised over $10,000.00 before spending a long, cold night sleeping in our cars or on pews of St. John’s Anglican Church, raising money and awareness for the homelessness crisis in our community. In 2018, we want to increase participation and double the amount raised! We need your help to make that happen!
Join us for a no-obligation information session to learn more about St. John’s fundraiser, The Long, Long Night of Hope 2018. At both sessions, you will learn how you can take part, how easy it is to reach your goal with peer-to-peer fundraising and, if you desire, you will be able to register right on the spot!
