The Pathstone Foundation raised $53,000 and counting during the White and Bright free live stream event.

This is all thanks to their sponsors, a Gift Match and support from the community.

The money raised will benefit Pathstone’s crisis hotline and walk-in clinic services.

Pathstone is planning to open a ninth walk-in clinic in Thorold once it resumes normal operations.

You can still donate to the cause online here.

The White and Bright Affair was supposed to be an in-person event in June, but officials decided to cancel it due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

They decided to offer it was a free live-stream event in April instead.
