EXAMINER ARTICLE - COVENANT HOUSE CEO SLEEP OUT - AWARENESS and FUNDRAISING
Cardboard boxes and sleeping bags are the only comfort executives had as they slept outside in 12 cities across the U. S. and Canada. They did it to honor Runaway and Homeless Youth Awareness Month and to show solidarity with the young residents of Covenant House.
The idea takes some getting used to. It actually grew out of a successful night last year in New York City, where 50 executives accepted the challenge and raised $500,000 to benefit vulnerable youth.
