Union Gospel Mission got a huge boost last weekend thanks to a talented blogger and a rockstar with a heart for the homeless. Local blogger Miss 604 (aka Rebecca Bollwitt) organized a Blogathon where she and 11 other bloggers blogged around the clock to raise money for their charity of choice. Miss 604, along with Duane Storey, raised money for Union Gospel Mission. Small, but helpful pledges were coming in, but at the proverbial midnight hour, everything changed. Celebrity Matthew Good, one of Canada's most successful musicians and a Vancouver resident, stepped up to offer an opportunity of a lifetime.
