For many street children, night after night, a cardboard box may be the only shelter they have.

During June, why not grab all those cardboard boxes lying around the house and get creative! The aim is to leave the comfort of your bed by building a bed/den/shelter in which to spend the night, whether that's on your bedroom floor, in the sitting room, in a tent or under the stars. In doing this and raising money for StreetInvest you can help many street children all around the world find the safe spaces and trustworthy adults they so desperately need.

Ask your family and friends to sponsor you by creating and sharing with them your very own fundraising page!

And don't forget to nominate a friend to take on the challenge themselves.

We would love to see pics of your creations...please use #TheLittleSleepOut @streetinvest on twitter, facebook and instagram.

Here is an indication of what money you raise can do:

£5 buys one of our street children Street Champions their phone data for a month, to stay in touch with their streetworker

£12 one Street Worker helps a street child for 1 year

£20 ensures a female Street Worker helps adolescent girls for a further week

£50 trains a new Street Worker to bring about positive change in the lives of 100 street children each year

£100 funds our entire Kenya team for 1 week
