On Thursday, September 27th from 5:30 - 7:00 p.m., I am hosting a cocktail party at the Country Club of Detroit to introduce potential partners to Covenant House Michigan’s Sleep Out: Executive Edition with the goal of inspiring and recruiting sleepers to this year’s event. I hope you are able to attend.
Covenant House Michigan belongs to the largest youth homeless organization in North and Latin America. The Detroit campus, established in 1997, serves thousands of homeless and at-risk youth each year. The Sleep Out: Executive Edition seeks local leaders throughout the United States and Canada who accept the challenge to sleep outside for one night on the campus of their local Covenant House site to raise awareness and much needed funds to continue their work.
I consider you someone who cares about those on the wrong side of advantage, which is why I am asking you to consider participating in this year’s event on Thursday, November 15. Having slept out myself for the past four years, I know what is involved and have witnessed the impact of Covenant House Michigan’s support to young people 18-24 who have nowhere to go.
I am seeking your assistance in promoting and attending the informational cocktail party at the CCD amongst your friends and colleagues to increase awareness of the event and consider sleeping out November 15.
Sincerely,
David
