The Benjamin Foundation
Sleep Out 2024
Sleep Out is our flagship fundraising campaign which raises awareness of youth homelessness through encouraging supporters to spend one night sleeping outside.
Story
Sleep Out so a young person has a safe space to call home.
We want to end youth homelessness, and we are tackling the problem locally, providing a safe home and support to over 200 young people every night.
Sleep Out is an important campaign for us here at The Benjamin Foundation. It’s an opportunity for various communities and supporters to come together and not only raise awareness of youth homelessness, but also help us give recognition to the services and young people who have achieved positive outcomes across Norfolk and Suffolk.
Sleep Out encourages our supporters to spend one night sleeping outside to raise awareness of the issues facing young people experiencing homelessness. Money raised from our campaign goes towards our Sleep Out fund. This can be accessed by young people in our housing services, to support their lifestyle or access new opportunities.
The event has raised over £300,000 since 2015 to support our charity's work. Learn about the impact of Sleep Out from a recap of our launch event:
