Join Albany's Big Sleep Out on 27 Aug: Supporting Youth Homelessness

*Shared in support of Albany Community Foundation's event.

We're excited to be back again at our home ground of the Albany Agricultural Society's Exhibition Pavilion this year for the 2022 Big Sleep Out!

The Big Sleep Out is an annual fundraising initiative that encourages you to get out of your comfort zone for one night to raise funds for the less fortunate in our city who are homeless.?

The funds YOU raise will directly benefit those living in our town who through no fault of their own find themselves unable to support themselves. This year we focus on Youth Homelessness, what that looks like in our city and what YOU can do to help.

The amazing team at Albany Youth Support Association (AYSA) are our spotlight organisation this year and they will be on the couch and in the crowd on the night sharing insights on their day to day experiences with the homeless youth they see presenting at their drop in centre and outreach programs.

HOW DOES IT WORK??

1 - Sign up to the Sleep Out challenge, telling us why you are sleeping out?

2 - Ask family, friends & workmates to sponsor you

3 - Find us on the socials, like and share the event

4 - Turn up on Sat 27 Aug with a swag and positive attitude

5 - Help those in our community who need it most

We ask you to join us for a night to remember?for as well as raising funds for an important cause?you will experience a side to homelessness that you may have never considered before.
