Every year, Covenant House California hosts a Spring Sleep Out where our community gives up their bed for one night to ensure that young people overcoming homelessness can sleep safely at Covenant House. The Sleep Out is not about impersonating homelessness. They Sleep Out to show their solidarity with those who are. During the event, Sleepers will dive deeper into Covenant House's mission, hear from their youth, alumni, and front-line staff about the impact of their efforts, and engage in meaningful conversations with each other. Prior to the event night, individuals and teams sign up and fundraise (company sponsorships available!) and raise awareness about the movement to end youth homelessness. When you register, you will create a personal fundraising page that you can customize and share with your network so they can donate directly to your page. Covenant House CA asks all Sleepers to make a good faith effort in hitting the $1,000 fundraising goal. With that being said, Sleepers must raise a minimum of $250 in order to attend the in-person event.
Date: 3/25
Time: 8 pm - 7 am (3/26)
Location: TBC (outdoors, COVID safety protocol in place!)
After signing up below, you will receive an email putting you in contact with Covenant House's point person. You can ask them any questions at that point, and they will get you started with starting your fundraising effort!
Organization Description:
Covenant House CA believes that no young person deserves to be homeless; that every young person in California deserves shelter, food, clothing, education… and most importantly, to be loved. And they believe that it is their responsibility, as a community, to ensure that young people are given the opportunities that they deserve to achieve their dreams.
