Coldest Night of the Year February 26th
Coldest Night of The Year (CNOY)- Saturday February 26, 2022
Saturday February 26, 2022 marks the beginning of the Ebenezer week of support for homeless individuals in our community. We will begin with the CNOY walk on Saturday February 26, 2022 and finish with the Out of the Cold (OOTC) lunches the following week on Saturday March 5, 2022.
Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY) is the name of the walk that raises money for Blue Door. Blue Door is our partner that runs the Out Of The Cold program three nights a week at Ebenezer. By participating in this fundraiser and walking in the cold, we are reminded of the impact and challenges faced by those experiencing homelessness. We hope that you will be able to join us for some fun, some laughs, and some Ebenezer comradeship!!!
