Top 10 Reasons to Sleep Out Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

Just like David Letterman, we’ve created the Top 10 Reasons for Sleeping Out on Saturday, November 3, 2007:

10. It’s the best excuse you will ever have for a slumber party outside!
9. You and your friends can find ways to stay warm and cozy on a November night while getting a “taste” of what it means to be homeless.
8. You get to check out Matt Wilhelm, the very cool 3-time BMX bike X-game medalist, perform on his bike at the rally.
7. You will realize that there are too many kids that do not have a place to call home.
6. When your group raises $4,000 or more, your group is treated to a party at the new really cool Lucky Strikes Lanes in Lombard!
5. You can help stamp out the fact that the average age of a person who is homeless in DuPage County is eight years old.
4. You will cherish your own home even more after the Sleep Out.
3. You will have a better appreciation for what it means to be homeless and you will say to yourself “Nobody should be in a situation where they have no place to live!”
2. You will feel great about raising money to fight homelessness.

AND THE #1 REASON to SLEEP OUT ...
Because YOU can make a difference!! And that’s the greatest feeling on earth!
