Wow! What a Great Event!

Sleep Out Brunswick was an amazing success thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and supporters. We raised more than $50,000 with nearly 240 supporters. The Poverty Simulation gave 45 attendees the experience of what it could feel like to be without a home and in poverty, and nearly 25 people slept out.

Here is some of the great media coverage we received:
