One of Whistler's favourite charities needs your help.
Zero Ceiling, the local non-profit dedicated to ending youth homelessness, aims to raise $15,000 before June 30, with one generous supporter offering to match every dollar.
"As of today, we’ve only raised $4,025. We still need $10,975 to unlock the full match. We know your support can get us there!" reads a Zero Ceiling fundraising email.
"Four new youth have just recently joined our program. They’re settling into safe and comfortable homes, starting new jobs, meeting their community, heading out on Ride Days up the mountain, and sharing home-cooked family dinners."
Thanks in part to the community, as well as the partnerships with organizations like Whistler Blackcomb, the Whistler Housing Authority (WHA), and the Whistler Valley Housing Society, Zero Ceiling expanded the supportive housing it provides to young adults facing homelessness from eight to 11 beds in 2024.
Zero Ceiling welcomed more than 200 at-risk youth to Whistler through its Adventure Sessions this past winter.
