More About Beacon's Sixth Annual Solidarity Sleep Out

Sleep out so others don't have to!!

From Friday, April 26th at 7pm to Saturday, April 27th at 8am, dedicated adults, teens, and children will be sleeping out to raise critical funds and awareness for people experiencing homelessness in Monroe County, Indiana. With sleeping bags, tarps, and tents, participants will gather on the grounds of First United Methodist Church or sleep in our backyards, on our living room floor, etc.

All ages are welcome. Adults and teen participants are asked to register, choose a personal fundraising goal, and ask friends and family to sponsor them as they sleep out.

The net proceeds from the event will support Beacon's overnight shelter, Friend's Place, the only secular, LGBTQ+ affirming, year-round emergency shelter for homeless adults in the region and Monroe County's only women's shelter. Friend's Place is a sober shelter for Monroe County residents providing hope and support as people find their way back home. Combined with Beacon's housing and employment assistance, Friend's Place has become one of the most successful shelters in Indiana.
