A Nurse and a Librarian set out to help raise money for Homeless youth by sleeping out overnight at the famous 'G - the MCG.
Taking blankets and books, they settled in with many like-minded citizens to experience an iconic event and do a little good for others at the same time. The Nurse was determined to take the patient's pulse of the community, while the Librarian was ready to check out the experience and ensure no one was shelved from the conversation.
You could join us! Or, support via a donation (we promise not to overdue it!), or even just wish us a warm, cosy night - we're bound to appreciate it!
....
Every night, over 122,000 Australians experience homelessness. That’s more than the maximum capacity of the great MCG. And alarmingly, a quarter of all these people are between the ages of 12 and 24.
In Victoria, more than 7,600 young people experience homelessness every night.
Young people need more than a safe place to live, they need stability and support to develop life skills, heal from trauma, and to transition to independence. Your support is needed now more than ever.
Homelessness is not a choice. Homelessness doesn't discriminate.
I'm seeking your support by asking you to donate so that we can reach our fundraising target. Every dollar counts!
Together, we have the power to end youth homelessness.
