About this challenge 

In October 2025, I’ll be heading to the other side of the globe to participate in the Cambodia Challenge for Shelter!


For 5 days, I’ll be trekking alongside like-minded colleagues from coast to coast all in support of the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation. While my trek towards the picturesque temples of Angkor Wat will be immensely rewarding, it will not be easy! Days will be long, hot, and humid and jet lag will be intense. I will be going without the comforts of home, sleeping in a small tent, using rustic bathroom facilities and unplugging completely from cell service and technology. To be eligible to take part, I will pay my own trek and travel expenses and must raise at least $6,000 for the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation. Of the funds I raise, 80% will be directed to my local women’s shelter and 20% will fund national domestic violence prevention programs. 

I know the adventure ahead will test me both physically and emotionally, but I’ve raised my hand because I believe that a house is only a home when the people who live there feel safe. As I face this challenge, I will draw strength knowing that every dollar I raise and every kilometer I walk will help make it easier for women and children to find the safety, hope and healing they deserve.

Why I trek

As a Realtor my purpose is to find people a home. Sadly on any given night close to 6,000 women and children are fleeing their home to find refuge in an emergency shelter because home is not a safe place for them. And hundreds are turned away because there is no space for them. 

Locally, our Three Oaks Foundation has been providing safe shelter for women and children since 1983. Thanks to support like yours, each year they are able to house nearly twice as many fleeing domestic violence as their funding allows for.

Women’s shelters across Canada need our support now more than ever to fund their life-saving and life-changing work. As we emerge from the COVID pandemic, shelters across the country are reporting rising rates of domestic violence and more women than ever who are reaching out for help. While most of our lives have returned to normal, there are women and children in all corners of the country who are now fleeing the danger within their homes and working to rebuild their future after experiencing domestic violence.
