Upcoming Special Events

Hungry Hearts: We are excited to announce the dates for our Hungry Hearts campaign, 2023! The television broadcast will air on Saturday, September 2 while the culinary gala will take place on Saturday, September 9. Presently we are looking for businesses and community groups to support our annual fundraiser by becoming sponsors and auction donors. Contact stevens@ourplacesociety.com. Tickets can be purchased here. We’ve extended our early bird price until June 15!

Sponsor a Meal: You can upgrade a basic breakfast to a fulfilling meal of proteins containing eggs and bacon when you or your group sponsor a meal, starting at $580. Lunch and dinner sponsorships available as well. Our Place serves over 1,300 of meals per day and your sponsorship ensures continued support for the most vulnerable citizens of Greater Victoria. 

Coldest Night of the Year: The popular walkathon campaign will return to downtown Victoria and the WestShore on Saturday, February 24, 2024. Our Place Society and the Pacific Centre Family Services Association (in the WestShore) host the two- and five-kilometre charity walks. Together, we are proud to offer families, faith, work, school and community groups the opportunity to walk in solidarity and raise awareness and funds to help serve the hungry, homeless, and hurting people in our community. Coldest Night has become one of the country’s most successful community action campaigns and last year we were able to raise over $175,000 for our neighbours in need. People can sign up at https://cnoy.org/location/victoriapandora for the downtown walk and https://cnoy.org/location/victoriawestshore for the Langford walk starting at Starlight Stadium, beginning in November of 2023. Like other years, we will have warmups, family friendly activities, warm toques and warmer bowl of chili (for those who fundraise).
