Last year, Douglas and a group of friends raised over $47,000 after completing a 46-hour walk from Toronto to the U.S. side of Niagara Falls.
Over the next several days, their journey took them from Toronto to Mississauga, Oakville, Burlington, Hamilton, Grimsby, Lincoln, Jordan, St. Catharines, and finally, Niagara Falls.
I wanted to do something bold enough to spark conversation, show unity, and raise real support for youth programs," Douglas told blogTO.
The 13-minute video showing the group's journey from Toronto to Niagara Falls has already amassed over 380,000 views and 50,000 likes.
Miraculously, Douglas and Dave managed to inch their way to Niagara Falls, and officially completed their walk on Sept. 1.
