Launch of the Third Edition of the Wall of Kindness

On November 13 at 10:30 AM, to celebrate World Kindness Day, Renaissance will launch the third edition of the Wall of Kindness, dedicated spaces where citizens can hang winter coats. This initiative, which has been growing in success since its first edition in 2022, aims to collect winter coats for individuals experiencing homelessness in the Greater Montreal area. The Maison du Père, a long-standing partner of Renaissance, is the beneficiary of this third edition of the program.

From November 13 to December 1, 2024, four walls will be set up in strategic locations. Citizens are invited to donate warm coats for adults, allowing those who cannot afford winter clothing to receive some warmth and comfort. With winter approaching and a challenging economic situation affecting more and more people, this solidarity-driven and eco-friendly initiative is particularly important.

Where to Go to Hang a Coat at One of the Four Walls of Kindness in Montreal?

The Walls are located at the corners of Iberville/Masson, Sainte-Catherine Est/Bourbonnière, Ontario Est/Saint-Timothée, and Saint-Viateur/Clark.

During this challenging time, it is crucial to mobilize our community to support those in need. This initiative is not just about offering coats, but also about fostering a sense of solidarity and mutual assistance.

By joining forces, we can help improve the daily lives of the most vulnerable and make a real difference in their lives.

Together, let’s make this winter a season of warmth and sharing.
