About Ann Davis Transition Society
You can make a difference by supporting Ann Davis Society through the Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY) fundraising walk on Saturday, February 22nd, 2025.
For over 44 years, the Ann Davis Transition Society has been committed to helping the most vulnerable women and children in our community to find safe and secure shelter.
Through education, prevention and support, our services support all ages and genders who have been affected by abuse and violence. We provide access to Transition Homes for women and children fleeing abusive and violent situations; counselling; legal advocacy, outreach and various programs that all make a difference in our very own community. Our goal is to deliver continued support as the need for help has increased this year.
Last year we provided over 15,100 bed stays for women and children but sadly we had to turn away many women and children who were in need, as we had no room, and they had no place to go. By walking and fundraising in this year's CNOY event, you will be contributing towards helping to secure services and supports. You truly can make a difference!
