At Asset Living, we're dedicated to doing good while doing well and constantly looking for ways to serve our communities. This year, we're partnering with Covenant House —a global nonprofit supporting homeless youth—in their annual Sleep Out event on November 21st. Sleep Out is a night of sleeping outdoors in solidarity, raising awareness for the thousands of young adults who turn to Covenant House each year for safe shelter, nourishing food, clean clothing, and essential services like job training, education, healthcare, mental health counseling, and legal aid. The funds raised during Sleep Out will help Covenant House provide 24/7 care, and the awareness raised will help to shed some light on the youth homelessness crisis.
Sleepers participating in this year's event will give up their beds for one night and Sleep Out in backyards, garages, porches, terraces, and floors across the United States. Please note that all participants must be over the age of 18 unless attending with a parent or guardian.
We invite everyone in the Asset Living family and beyond to join us for this annual event. The best part is that no matter where you are, you can participate from anywhere.
