Fundraising Campaign Targets Youth Homelessness
On the 6th of March, Home Depot, located in Cranbrook, proudly presented a generous donation totaling $15,410. The recipient of this contribution was the Ktunaxa Nation Council on behalf of Operation Street Angel. This is all a part of the Orange Door Campaign, a drive set in motion with the objective of eradicating youth homelessness within Canada. This initiative was developed by Home Depot with our news source providing exclusive coverage of this event.
Cranbrook Community Lends Its Support
The significant funds raised were not amassed by the conglomerate alone. The community of Cranbrook, displaying a shared sense of responsibility, mobilized to support the cause. Their noteworthy participation led to a significant increase in the collected amount, an action that Home Depot Canada generously matched to double the pledge made towards combating youth homelessness.
Continued Commitment to Community Efforts
The Orange Door Campaign is held bi-annually to bring together local resources and raise awareness around issues of youth homelessness. The campaign has received immense support from the Cranbrook community. The organizers and our source anticipate that future iterations of the campaign will witness increased community involvement and hence, greater impact.
