About The Mustard Seed Calgary
The Mustard Seed is a Christian non-profit organization that has been caring for individuals experiencing homelessness and poverty since 1984. Operating in six cities across Alberta and British Columbia, The Mustard Seed is a supportive haven where people can have their physical, mental, and spiritual needs met and grow toward greater health and independence.
At The Mustard Seed, we recognize that the root causes of poverty and homelessness are complex and diverse, so we continue to grow and evolve with the needs of those we serve.
The Coldest Night of the Year fundraising walk is an incredibly valuable way for the community of Calgary to partner with The Mustard Seed and experience a small part of what our guests endure. We would love to have you, your family, and your friends walk alongside The Mustard Seed at this incredibly important event.
