The Coast Shelter Sleepout 2026 was an incredible success, bringing together our community in a powerful show of support for people experiencing homelessness.
This year’s event welcomed more than 200 attendees, with over 70 dedicated sleepers spending the night outdoors to raise awareness and vital funds for Coast Shelter’s services. Together, our supporters raised an outstanding $125,000+, helping us continue to provide safe housing, food relief and support services for individuals and families doing it tough across the Central Coast.
Thank you to the Aluwihare family for being highest fundraising team.
The Sleepout is more than a fundraiser. It is an opportunity to spark conversations about homelessness, build understanding and demonstrate that our community stands beside those who need support most.
We are deeply grateful to every participant, sponsor, volunteer and donor who made this event possible. Your generosity and commitment will make a real difference in the lives of people facing homelessness and hardship.
Thank you for helping us create hope, change lives and work towards a future where everyone has a safe place to call home.
