About Miramichi Youth House
The Miramichi Youth House Inc is located in the small town of Miramichi, NB. Being a not for profit we are always out in our community with various types of fundraisers and this is why we choose to be a part of The Coldest Night of the Year. We want this to be our most memorable fundraising event yet!! This will be our third time fundraising in this National event with Coldest Night of the Year! With the continued support of our community, I think we will be able to reach our goal of $45,000. Not only will this cut back on being in the community as often but will also create awareness of the homelessness in our community and surrounding areas!
The event will be teams competing to see who can raise the most amount of money. The walk you have the option of walking a 2 km, 5 km or 10 km walk with us.
We would love to see you all online getting out and to walk with us virtually on February 26th, 2022 for #CNOYMiramichi !
