LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. - s4story -- Tonight, children in Gwinnett County will fall asleep without a safe place to call home.

That's not a statistic. That's someone's child.

Family Promise of Gwinnett is launching Night Without a Bed, a community-wide movement calling individuals, students, faith communities, and organizations to spend one night without the comfort of their bed, and in doing so, raise awareness and funds for local families experiencing homelessness.

This is more than a fundraiser. It's a declaration that this community refuses to look away.

"Community is greater than crisis," said Carol Love, Executive Director of Family Promise of Gwinnett. "When a family faces homelessness, a caring community can make all the difference. Night Without a Bed empowers people of all ages to raise awareness, take action, and help ensure that every child and family has the support they need to thrive."

Throughout August, participants can host sleep-outs, awareness events, fundraising challenges, and educational activities — as individuals or as a group. Church groups, school clubs, student leadership organizations, civic groups, sports teams, scouts, and community members are all invited to join.
