About Youth Haven
185 – the number of youth that were kept from sleeping on the streets in 2018.
200 + - youth who wouldn’t have had support across Simcoe County. Someone to talk to, to take them to doctors appts, advocate for and navigate adult systems with, someone to teach them much needed coping skills to manage the world they live in.
These youth; your children, your nieces and nephews, brothers and sisters, come to Youth Haven because they are at risk and need help. They want to be housed, finish school, find a job. They have hope that they can build a better life for themselves, they just need an opportunity and the skills to get there. They need to feel safe, have structure and allow themselves to relax, so that they can start to rebuild their lives. We ask you to walk so you can experience a small portion of their journey for yourselves, to bring our community together to take action to help support the health and hope of our young people. To fundraise so that we can offer more.

Virtual CNOY Day
This is your own self-organized micro-walk! Virtual CNOY Day should feel pretty familiar once you get walking - here are some key things you'll need to do on February 20 (or whatever day in February you decide to walk):
- Gather with your covid-safe bubble (or on your own)
- Map out a safe 2-5 km route
- Let someone know where you are
- Bring a cell phone in case of emergency
- Add pledged funds in your Fundhub
- Share online as you go! #cnoy21
- Keep fundraising (half of all fundraising happens in the last week!)
- Be safe and have fun!
