One Winter Night (OWN)
Illinois OWN will take place Friday, February 2, 2024 from 6pm-12am, on the Main Quad & Illini Union in partnership with C-U at Home (https://www.cuathome.us/).
The One Winter Night Challenge provides a powerful opportunity for Illini to learn about homelessness, build empathy for the people served by CU at Home, and raise funds to support the mission of CU at Home.
Participants experience the difficulties faced by homeless individuals on cold winter nights, while raising awareness by spending the night outside in tents or makeshift shelters on the Quad.
Participants will receive a OWN Shirt and "Essentials" Bag.
