On August 13, CMM will host the first Big Sleepout in Christchurch and Blenheim, joining the national movement that challenges business and community leaders to sleep out overnight to raise funds for homelessness services.
CMM’s Methodist Alliance sister organisation Lifewise started the Big Sleepout in Auckland, where it has grown into one of New Zealand’s most impactful empathy driven fundraising events. Funds raised through the CMM Big Sleepout will support outreach services for people experiencing homelessness.
