Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We will be fundraising as team in aid of Byte Night, aiming to prevent Youthful Homelessness. Between us we aim to reach our target by organising and taking part in various activities - Sober September, Pie face, Bake sale, Dare day, Charity evening etc.
We walk past so many homeless people on our way to and fro work and never stop to think of their struggles, not just to find food and water but a safe place to rest their head at nights on the dangerous streets of London. We are blessed to be living a life we are in and by donating a small amount, YOU will be making a huge difference to a homeless youth:
- We know that half of all adults who are homeless, first
became homeless when they were less than 21 years old. - We know that one of the leading causes of youth
homelessness is a breakdown in relationships
between parents, or carers, and young people. - We know that violence in the home is another
leading cause. - We know that 1 in 5 young people have had to
‘sofa surf’ – asking favours of friends, and moving
from house to house. - We know that 1 in 6 young people have slept rough.
- But we also know the best ways to step in early and
stop young people ending up on the street…
