Story

As most of my people know, I experienced homelessness as an unaccompanied minor between the ages of 15 and 22. I have dedicated the last 12 years of my life to service towards marginalized communities to alleviate the stressors in other folks lives that resulted in homelessness in my own. 

Tonight, there will be more than 1,500 youth in the Greater St. Louis area without a place to sleep. Nationwide, there are over 2 million homeless youth. Through your support of Step-Up and Sleep-Out, you are providing the necessary items and resources for hundreds of youth to find safety, hope and success in life. It takes just one night to make a difference.

On November 12th I will be spending another night out, myself, in solidarity with youth who are still experiencing the impacts homelessness. Please support me, and them, by donating what you can to this cause that is so dear to my heart. 

Thank you all!
