COME TOGETHER FOR YOUTH IN NEED

A fun event for families and individuals, benefiting youth experiencing homelessness within our community.

​

Pitch a tent and sleep under the stars, or set up a makeshift tent in your basement or living room. Make an evening of it by preparing and enjoying dinner outside. Opt for traditional games and songs around the campfire. Enjoy S'mores. Make memories.

​

Photograph or record video of your evening, and share on social media using the hashtag #byc4youthhaven.

All proceeds will go towards supporting youth who are experiencing homelessness in Simcoe County.
