Join Covenant House Georiga for an unforgettable Sleep Out event on Nov. 21-22, 2024!
Each year on the Thursday before Thanksgiving, "Sleepers" just like you gather to support Atlanta’s youth facing homelessness and trafficking.
4.2 million youth face homelessness every year. In metro Atlanta alone, 3,300 youth are experiencing homelessness.* Each of these young people has a story, a dream, and a future - one they can build with support from Covenant House Georgia (CHGA) and friends like you.
Join Sleep Out and endure one night of uncomfortable sleep outdoors to raise critical funds and awareness for youth overcoming homelessness. Your participation fuels our ability to continue providing 24/7 shelter, sanctuary and support.
This is your chance to support young people facing homelessness while making new connections and deepening your involvement with CHGA.
We are committed to housing, caring for, and empowering young people overcoming homelessness and escaping trafficking. Join us!
