Tomorrow Mark Brand from Save on Meats will find himself sleeping in an unheated parking garage on Pender.
Mark is participating in SLEEP OUT: EXECUTIVE EDITION, a fundraiser where executives, public figures and well connected leaders in our community will sleep outside for one night in solidarity with those youth who may face many more cold, lonely nights until they find their way through Covenant House’s doors.
Click HERE to learn about the sleepout and then HERE to donate specifically to Mark's campaign to help keep youth off the street.
Here's a quick chat Elliot Chun had with Mark after his recent TedXVancouver talk about community and his work...
