Hwy 16 walk raises money for women’s shelters

To raise money for women’s shelters and awareness for the highway of tears, Brett Merchant has decided to walk from Prince George to the end of Hwy 16.

So far he’s raised over 4 thousand dollars, and is looking to raise 50k through his Go Fund Me page.

“A women’s shelter can be help in the middle of the night with phone call, a place to go, a ride…and walking along this highway transportation is a huge one.”

He says all the money will go towards women’s shelters across the north.

Today he’s in Burns Lake and plans to start walking again tomorrow along with his dog.

Here’s a link to the Go Fund Me:
