The Journey’s Walk for Hope!

The Journey’s Walk for Hope!

Coming Sunday, September 22, 2024

North Bramalea United Church and The Journey Neighbourhood Centre will be launching our fundraiser walk in support of The Journey.

“We live in challenging times!” – food insecurity, sky-rocketing housing costs, precarious employment and the continuing fallout of a global pandemic.

Since 2013, The Journey Neighbourhood Centre has been addressing the needs and struggles of the Ardglen/Orenda community in Brampton and food, employment and housing are just some of the hardships faced by the residents.

The Journey’s Walk for Hope is The Journey Neighbourhood Centres’ signature fundraising event.  It is an opportunity to enjoy a family friendly outing, while raising funds to support the work of The Journey Neighbourhood Centre.

“A Family Friendly Walk and a BBQ!” – The walk will start at Noon at North Bramalea United Church (363 Howden at Vodden) and end 4.2kms later at The Journey Neighbourhood Centre (9 Ardglen), where we will have a community BBQ to celebrate!
