Happy New Year! As we step into 2026, we’re excited to share that Supportive Housing of Waterloo (SHOW) is gearing up for the Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY) on Saturday, February 28, 2026 — and we would love for you to be part of it!

CNOY is a family-friendly winter walk that raises awareness and vital funds for people experiencing homelessness, hunger, and housing insecurity. Every dollar raised for SHOW directly supports our permanent housing communities and 24/7 wrap-around supports for residents rebuilding their lives.

There are many ways to get involved, and every role makes a meaningful difference:

Become a Team Captain

Grab some friends, family, colleagues, or your community group and lead your own CNOY team. It’s fun, impactful, and a great way to bring people together.

Volunteer on Event Day

CNOY can’t happen without an amazing volunteer crew! If you’d like to help with registration, route marshaling, rest stops, or hospitality, we’d love to have you.

This event is one of SHOW’s most important fundraisers of the year — and your involvement helps us continue providing safety, stability, and hope to those who need it most.

Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to walking (or serving, or cheering!) alongside you on February 28th.
