In Canada, the need for adequate housing almost doubles with each passing year. And especially after COVID, this trend is likely to continue for the foreseeable future. But there are some non-cape-wearing heroes who are looking to provide care and support to families who are in need. Joining us today is Nathaniel Miller, the Director of Programmes at Inn from the Cold, a Calgary-based charity that helps desperate families regain their independence through adequate and affordable housing. We learn about Nathaniel’s role in the company and what the organization does, and then we take a look at the incredible impact that the charity has had on its community. You’ll learn why dignity, kindness, and compassion are core values for Nathaniel and his team, how they end up providing parental advice, why the housing crisis is more nuanced than what appears at first glance, and the stigmas we need to let go of about people who are facing a housing crisis. Then, we take a closer look at the programmes Inn from the Cold offers, their financial breakdown and how they distribute funds, the magnitude of their influence in numbers, and what they do when they reach capacity at their facilities. Inn from the Cold’s every endeavour is to provide hope when all else seems lost and you’ll learn how you can get involved in their cause. They will again be our main charity recipient at the upcoming NATEFIT Calgary Exposed 5K race. Be sure to tune in for more details!
