Night In A Car

Would you spend the night in your car? Uncomfortable, cramped, noisy, not very private…and not our first choice.

On Friday, June 26, we are hosting Night In A Car, an event to give us just a taste of what living out of a car might feel like. The purpose of this event is to raise awareness of – and funds for – families in Centre County who have faced homelessness in some way.

We are choosing to do what many families have had to do – spend the night in a car.

This year, Night In A Car will be hosted by Oakwood Presbyterian Church, 1865 Waddle Rd, State College.

Want to participate in another way? Join the “AnythingButABed challenge! The scope of homelessness is vast, and many don’t realize that being unhoused can take many forms. Take part in this challenge by spending the night on a couch, on the floor, in a recliner, in a tent…you get the idea. If it’s not a bed, it counts!

We invite you to join us! Fill out the registration form below to get started.
