PAYTONS WALK OF WARMTH
It's that time of year again for Paytons Walk of Warmth . Covid restrictions will not stop us this year!
Join us December 18th downtown Saint Catharines to give out “bags of warmth” to those with a little less luck than most.
Who is Payton? Payton is the most kind and selfless little girl. (I’m biased) When she was 6 we moved to St. Catharines (downtown) and on our daily commute to school she would ask so many questions about why people were so sad,sleeping on the ground . She asked if we could make people meals for thanksgiving since we weren't doing anything anyways. So we did , she decorated tin food pans with hearts filled them with hot ham and potatoes and veggies, and put them in a wheeled cooler and our friend helped us hand hot meals out. That is the day my daughter taught me about compassion,and reminded me of the many times I was almost in the same position as some of the people she wanted to help. Since then we have been handing out bags of essentials almost every year
