Hope for the Homeless Sleep Out

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: The Pittsburgh Project

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
TPP

Sleep Out is a way to raise money and awareness for the homeless by inviting participants to spend the night outside using a cardboard box, tent, or other makeshift shelter. Although we could never recreate the real-life experience of what it is like to be truly homeless, sleeping out for the night can focus our thoughts on how we can all make a difference in the lives of the homeless right here in Pittsburgh.

Throughout the night we will hear testimony from those who have been homeless, or are currently homeless. We will have games and activities, and will be serving dinner and breakfast.

Join as we sleep out one night, for those who sleep out every night.
