Abbotsford – The City of Abbotsford has once again received a donation of 140 CITYPAKs from Wolfe Auto Group. The announcement was made on Tuesday by Abbotsford Mayor Henry Braun.
This is the third consecutive year that Wolfe Auto Group has made this contribution in our community. The CITYPAK backpacks are designed to support individuals who are experiencing homelessness. CITYPAKs provide a safe, convenient and versatile backpack designed to meet the changing needs of individuals who are experiencing homelessness. The backpacks feature a hideaway poncho designed to keep both the bag and its wearer dry, a cinch-top closure for extra 2/2 waterproofing, a ballistic nylon outer shell strong enough to combat the elements, a reflective strip for safety during the winter nights, and anti-theft measures including a strap that can be looped around the arm or leg
The 140 CITYPAKs will be disbursed through the Abbotsford Homelessness Prevention and Response System stakeholders in collaboration with the local outreach/service provider collaboration, who are working together to respond to the housing, health and social needs of vulnerable individuals in Abbotsford.
