Announcing – Friday 19th November is the date for the Coast Shelter Sleepout
75 Business people across the Central Coast have raised an astounding $85,000 in these COVID times and pledged to sleep rough for one night.
This huge fundraising effort demonstrates the support from our business community for people with issues concerning family and domestic violence, and homelessness
Originally planned for August, the Sleepout was postponed due to lockdown and the team at Coast Shelter are now excited to announce that we will be sleeping out on Friday 19th November. In line with NSW Government and Health advice, this event with be COVID safe with all “Sleepers” being doubly vaccinated and registered.
Central Coast Stadium is providing the perfect venue for the Sleepout. Centrally located on the beautiful Gosford waterfront, our Sleepers will get to experience sunset through the palm trees while they prepare to settle down and sleep on the ground with no shelter for one night.
This will be no party as sleeping rough isn’t easy and although our Sleepers will only sleepout for one night, they will experience the trepidation people feel when they don’t have their own home to go to.
The money raised will help provide safe accommodation for people experiencing family or domestic violence and the programs Coast Shelter run to support Coasties doing it tough.
Coast Shelter will be accepting donations towards the Sleepout at www.coastsheltersleepout.com.au
