Our Street Outreach Team is growing , which means we can expand another team to help reach our unhoused community members in the South Quadrant of the city , however in order to do this we need more wagons !
Join us for an informative morning for a chance to win some incredible prizes ! All proceeds will go towards purchasing items for our Street Outreach Team to distribute to our unhoused community members.💙
This absolutely incredible human being who is only 12 years old has made us 50 bags filled with hats, toques, mitts, hygiene items, clothing, snacks and more goodies to handout to our unhoused community members. Thank you so much Hannahlyns Backpacks !

It might not be Christmas yet... but it doesn't need to be in order for our team of elves to spread some cheer to our cities most vulnerable . #unhousedlivesmatter #harmreduction #harmreductionworks #waterwarriorsyyc #volunteer
Our team strives to spread compassion , kindness and empathy where it is lacking in our community. We meet individuals where they are at , with no judgement . #harmreduction #harmreductionworks #unhousedlivesmatter
Our language matters. How we speak about other people matters. Always be kind. 💙 #harmreduction #harmreductionworks #endthestigma #stigmatizingterms #personfirst
Another successful day of outreach this last weekend . Ensuring that our cities most vulnerable's basic needs are met is so important and essential. #unhousedlivesmatter #harmreductionworks #volunteer #makeadifference #waterwarriors #yyc
It was a hot one yesterday! But that didn't stop our team from heading out to do outreach . In fact we had 9 people come out yesterday, our biggest team so far . 🙌🏻 #unhousedlivesmatter #streetoutreach #harmreduction #harmreductionworks #volunteer #volunteerwithus
Water Warriors YYC is in need of donations. Please share this post to help get the word out . We can't do what we do without YOU! 💙 #summerfundraiser #harmreductionsaveslives #waterwarriorsyyc #donationsneeded
