Sleep Out! Team Spotlight – New Leaders Council Columbus

 

New Leaders Council is a 501 (c) (3) public charity dedicated to educating a new generation of leaders and to providing those leaders with the tools they need to succeed.

  • Why is your team sleeping out on April 12th, 2019? To be a part of an effort to raise awareness and money for a growing and often forgotten population of fellow humans in our Columbus community
  • What does your team hope to gain from the Sleep Out? We hope to that be experiencing even a small slice of the reality faced by the homeless will leave us with a better understanding of the harsh reality lived by so many.
  • What brings your team together for this event? We all understand that Columbus can never truly by a city of Us until all people are able to access all opportunities, especially basic human needs like shelter and food.

Support the New Leaders Council – Columbus team in their commitment to raise awareness and funds and Sleep Out! to end youth homelessness in central Ohio. Donate to their team page HERE or register your own team and raise awareness and funds HERE.
