The Coldest Night of the Year is a non-competitive five and 10-km winter walk fundraiser supporting select charities that serve the hungry and homeless in communities across Canada.  The evening walk in the dead of winter is a reminder of the challenges that homeless people experience. Sales rep Kim MacKay of Sutton Group – Quantum Realty in Oakville, Ont. and three friends bundled up recently to raise money and awareness.  Their team, called Maple Grove – Outreach, was the fifth highest fundraiser in Oakville.  They raised $2,355 and helped to bring the Oakville total to $36,548.  Nationally, 6,847 walkers raised $1,399,614.
