Did you know that
- food insecurity exists in every county in the United States?
- the homeless population increases at a rate of 6% each year?
Morrison Institute of Technology students will recognize and support National Hunger and Homeless Awareness Week, Saturday, November 14, through Sunday, November 22, 2015, by holding a “one-night-without-a-home” event.
On Monday, November 16, through the morning of Tuesday, November 17, students will spend the night outside–in tents, boxes, and cars–to promote advocacy, awareness, and education of homeless and hungry people in the United States.
How can you help?
