The Hard Reality of Homelessness

Eyes are closed but your mind remains awake. Shivering and cold, the warmth seems almost impossible to reach. It starts to rain but you have no other option than to feel each cold drop on your skin. No sleep, no warmth, no food and no hope.

A few of us at Dalton experienced these exact feelings on Thursday the 22nd of June 2023. We participated in the Vinnies CEO sleepout and raised a total of $12,600. Thank you to all the donors for their support.

Most of us are lucky enough to have a roof over our heads, dinner on the table and a family to come home to. This experience has taught us that we should all pause and reflect as not all of us share the same reality.
