Official News Release
You asked for it… we organized it! The AbbyPD’s Street Outreach Team (SORT) has organized a community clean-up. This event brings key service agencies who are providing support for our homeless community along with many individuals who have previously experienced homelessness in a collaborative effort to make Abbotsford green and clean. The clean-up will target the green space between the railway tracks near West Railway and Gladys Avenue. Snacks will be provided at the end of the event as a thank you for helping build the bridges between our homeless population and citizens wanting to help make a difference in our community.
Mark your calendars and come on out!
Date: Wednesday, April 28, 2021 (rain or shine)
Time: 9:00 am to 1:00 pm
Muster location: Meet us in the northwest corner of the Walmart parking lot between 8:30 and 9:00 am. You will find us at a cordoned-off area with several large tents, tables, and chairs (arranged in an appropriately physically distanced manner). Parking stalls for volunteers will be available.
Dress for the weather, bring gloves if you have them (AbbyPD will provide some gloves and pickers, but if you have your own, please bring them). Meet at Walmart between 8:30 – 9:00 am.
