I am giving up my bed for one night. “Sleep Out” is an event my school offers—a student-run project aimed at raising awareness about homeless youth and helping support the goals of Covenant House. 

Covenet House is a non-profit organization that provides 24/7 shelter, transitional housing, food, and medical care for youth ages 16–24 experiencing homelessness. However, Covenant House is more than just a shelter—it is a supportive community where young people are welcomed with unconditional love and offered warm meals, educational opportunities, life skills, and mental health and substance-use counselling - essential services designed to help them build independent futures. By Sleeping Out, I am helping to ensure youth facing homelessness can sleep safely and dream big at Covenant House Vancouver.

Sleep Out involves willing Gleneagle students giving up their beds and spending a night outside with minimal shelter and warmth. This sleepout is aimed at raising awareness for youth homelessness, as those participating will be further educated about the experiences and challenges they face in their everyday lives. Acknowledging that I am in a privileged place in my life, it is part of my responsibility to offer my help in any way that I can; one of which is this website. This website is a platform created to fundraise for Covenant House to help me reach my goal of $150.00.

You can be part of the solution for youth overcoming homelessness by donating to my Sleep Out. All funds will go to the non -profit; every donation made, big or small, helps keep someone in need off the streets.
