Help the Centre of Hope Give Light to Homelessness in our community by giving up your bed for one night of “sleeping rough”. Hope in the Dark is a night of knowledge, sharing, and making a difference. Although it is geared towards raising awareness of a severe issue it is also a fun event to join in on. Spend the night with your fellow community members sharing a meal, enjoying presentations and understanding what it is to be homeless in our community.

Sleeping arrangements include: boxes, sleeping bags, and tents (all items are bring your own except for boxes).

Registration information

Minimum registration fee is $25.00 and this will give you a choice of a sleeping bag or a cardboard box.

If you would like to spend the evening in our Tent Village, the registration fee is $50.00.

This event is open to children as well (12+), if you would like to register your child, please contact me for further information on this.

Please note:

As mentioned above a meal will be provided upon your arrival, and since this event is about awareness we kindly ask all participants to leave snacks at home.

Kind Regards,
