Sleep-out for the Homeless and Canned Food Drive
November 9th
Join members of Outreach as we spend the night on the quad to raise awareness about the homeless here in DC. Even if you can't spend the night please drop by with food for the drive! We will be giving out information about different ways you can get involved with homeless issues in DC. Food Drive will begin at 4pm on Friday and run until 9am Saturday Morning. The sleep-out will run from between 9pm to 9am but feel free to join us any time during the night. Sign up outside Student Services if you want to sleep out, or just drop by with food. We will be sleeping out rain or shine--please bring a sleeping bag!

Wake up from the Sleep-out and volunteer!

There will be two volunteer shifts- please join us even if you cannot participate in the sleep out.
