About Outreach Worker and Nourish Market

United Way Perth-Huron's St. Marys Community Committee invites you to walk and fundraise with us on February 22nd, 2025 in the Coldest Night of the Year to raise vital support for individuals experiencing homelessness, hunger, and hurt within the St. Marys community.


Funds raised through CNOY will support two important programs:


1) Walk to support the The St. Marys Community Outreach Worker who offers facilitation, education, and referrals for residents needing support including life skills, mental health, homelessness, and addictions, along with providing short-term support and help connecting community members to important services, and delivering community education and outreach, including neighbourhood mediation.


2) Walk to support the Nourish Equal Access Market; offering fresh, nutritious, locally sourced produce and meats to residents facing food insecurity. Nourish happens the 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month at the United Church and is open to anyone.
