#Repost @mskristinlkreuk (@get_repost) ・・・ Growing up in Vancouver, I never had to buy a proper winter coat(jacket? I can never remember the correct word); most years it just rained from October to May. Despite the bare deciduous trees, it stayed green and alive. Living in Toronto has forced/allowed me to develop a yearly ritual around winter. Here, it actually gets cold. Here, you need a proper winter coat. And the ground freezes, the trees are naked, and everything really does feel dead. Which was, at first, very bleak. But it is kind of the introvert's season--a time to turn inward, to reflect and recharge. As cheesy as it sounds, I have found that using the season to reflect on mutability and impermanence has made winter far less dreadful. As I read this silliness over, I am aware that I am insanely privileged to be able to consider winter in abstract terms. If you have the means, perhaps consider donating warm clothes or giving to a charity this winter. Covenant House has locations all over North America. And it is likely that your town has something at jives with what's important to you. Happy Sunday, kids. Sorry for long post. Oy. #KristinKreuk #Canada #CovenantHouse #Batb #Beasties #Kreukies #winter #Toronto

So I am out at the York revolution stadium here in York Pennsylvania getting set up for the Covenant House national sleep out night. I'm currently the only one in the stadium. Is a pretty eerie feeling the dead silence in a space like this. Out here representing Sprout Of Hope to support the Covenant House. @covenant_house #covenanthouse #covenanthousenationalsleep #yorkpa #yorkrevolution #santanderstadium #roboace #roboacescom @scream_fornati @robertolszewskiiii (at York Revolution) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5MPx_xlZ6i/?igshid=1pfoh2nevijta

So I am out to support the Covenant House National Sleepout Night of America. This is an event that happens every year and we were out here last year to show our support for the homeless youth. We just marched from the Covenant house to downtown York and there was a presentation and some speeches to kick it off for York ,check for us on the local news. TV crew was there. Now I am at the York Revlution stadium and am going to help unload the boxes we will be sleeping in outside in the cold.This is a cause near and dear to my heart because I was once homeless myself and understand the struggle. We can all do our part to help people less fortunate than ourselves. Sprout Of Hope made a $500 donation that was matched by an anonymous donor so that was HUGE! THANK YOU! You can check out my BLOG and YouTube pages as my story unfolds and can hear not only about my homeless days but other struggles I went through and how I have come through all that and follow me on the rest of my JOURNEY! THANK YOU! @covenant_house @sproutofhope #covenanthousenationalsleep #nationalsleepout #covenanthouse #help #goodcause #giveback #yorkpa #yorkrevolution #roboace #roboacescom (at PeoplesBank Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5MJ6wGFs2D/?igshid=bzjxv1yy05tv

At Sleep Out: Stage and Screen, we were gathered as stars of film, television and theatre, and, we encircled the stars who are the Cov kids - young people overcoming homelessness - and sang with them last night. Lean on me When you're not strong And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on...
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on. Being seen, loved, supported, and appreciated is so important for us all, and especially for these youth. I am honored to be with others from my communities from Film, Television, and Theatre, who slept out on the streets in solidarity with young people and raised funds to end youth homelessness.

It was a hot and long night, but, at least I am here with my new friend Silly Willy. We chatted in the middle of the night as we were sleeping out on the street in solidarity with the 4.2 million youth who experience homelessness in the US each year. I was sleeping on the street last night with @covenant_house @covenanthouseny. @covenant_house is an incredible organization determined to not just solve the problem of youth homelessness, but also help mend the hearts, minds, and bodies of these young folks, and give them more than a fighting chance at living full, happy, and productive lives. I was sleeping out so that they won’t have to, and I’d love your support in this mission if it’s something you feel led to do. 🙏 follow the link here or go to my Facebook page to donate there. ‪https://www.sleepout.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.participant&participantID=21618‬ #CHSleepOut #YuvalDavid #CovenantHouse #homeless #homelessness #homelessshelter #homelessyouth #fundraiser #Philanthropy #Humanitarian #SleepOut #SleepOutside #SleepingOnTheStreets #HomelessNewYorkers #HomelessAmericans #Puppets #SocialImpact (at Javits Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1YjAJrhoy7/?igshid=1wg9a3sa9no49
