Description
Bundle up and join the Downtown Mission on Saturday, February 28, 2026, for the Coldest Night of the Year, a family-friendly walk that raises funds to support individuals in Windsor-Essex experiencing homelessness, hunger, and poverty.
The event begins at the Downtown Mission with check-in at 4:00 PM, followed by opening remarks at 4:45 PM and an official walk send-off at 5:00 PM. Participants will walk a 2km or 5km route through downtown Windsor alongside teams, families, and community supporters. Food will be served for returning walkers starting at 6:00 PM, with routes officially closing at 7:00 PM and the event wrapping up by 7:30 PM.
Funds raised directly support the Downtown Mission’s essential services, including shelter, meals, and outreach programs for vulnerable individuals in our community.
