Tonight, Covenant House Vancouver will host our second Sleep Out: Home Edition. As a virtual event, we are encouraging people to Sleep Out “together” in solidarity with youth who are experiencing homelessness while remaining physically apart to raise funds and awareness.
This is a special opportunity to be a part of a positive movement that will bring our community together to help vulnerable youth. Our event aims to raise $200,000 for our Street Outreach Program. “Sleepers” will interact by video with frontline workers and also hear from CHV youth.
We are excited that Vancouver City Hall, the Harbour Centre, and Bentall Tower One and Two will be lighting up in Covenant House colours tonight for Sleep Out: Home Edition. We are grateful for this colourful show of support.
Our sleepers would greatly appreciate any donations – click here to donate to a sleeper or to the event. Every Sleep Out donation made today will be matched by Kim Streit and an anonymous donor up to $50,000!
Be sure to join in the discussion on social media using the hash tag #CHSleepOut. You can follow Covenant House Vancouver on Twitter @CovenantHouseBC, on Instagram @covenanthousebc or on our Facebook page.
Big thank you to all our “sleepers” and their supporters!
