Niagara College is proud to once again take part in the Coldest Night of the Year walk, and we invite you to be a part of it. Join the NC Knight Walkers this Saturday, February 22 at the Welland Campus and support the team with a donation to help us reach our $5,000 fundraising goal.
The Coldest Night of the Year is a nationwide, family-friendly event held each February to support those experiencing homelessness, hurt, and hunger. Since its inception in 2011, the event has raised over $75 million across 190 Canadian communities, with 100% of net proceeds staying local to support charity partners. To learn more, visit the CNOY website here.
If you are unable to join in person, you can still show your support by donating through the NC Knight Walkers fundraising page here.
