💚 Halloween on the streets of Calgary. 🎃 While many Calgarians are celebrating Halloween tonight, our BeTheChangeYYC volunteers are spending their Saturday afternoon doing what they do every week showing up for our neighbours experiencing homelessness. With our outreach wagons stocked with water, food, essential supplies, and compassion, our team is walking through downtown Calgary, connecting with people who need support. And sometimes, the smallest moments bring the biggest smiles. 🐕❤️ Tonight, that included making a new four-legged friend along the way! Homelessness doesn’t take a holiday. Neither does kindness. We’re incredibly grateful to the volunteers who choose to give their time on evenings, weekends, and holidays to make sure people aren’t forgotten. Every bottle of water, every conversation, and every act of kindness matters. 💚 Want to help keep our wagons stocked and our volunteers on the streets? Support Calgary street outreach: bethechangeyyc.org/donations… Thank you for helping us be the change we want to see in our community. #BeTheChangeYYC #Calgary #YYC #Halloween2026 #StreetOutreach #HomelessnessAwareness #VolunteerYYC
