DESCRIPTION:Ritter Center, a Federally Qualified Health Center, launched a community 
 event to end homelessness in Marin County today. “Under the Stars: A 
 Sleepout to End Homelessness in Marin” is an event designed to ask the 
 public to give up their warm beds for just one night this summer to help 
 raise $150,000 for Ritter Center’s housing support and healthcare 
 services that prevent and resolve homelessness.\n\nOn the night of July 31, 
 2021, Ritter Center is asking individuals, families and community teams to 
 gather in living rooms, floors, sofas, decks, porches, driveways and 
 backyards with the intention to spend the night in any place other than a 
 bed.\n\n“Under the Stars: A Sleepout to End Homelessness in Marin” is 
 designed to raise public awareness of the complex issues around 
 homelessness, and shatter common myths while building compassion as a 
 community, and igniting a movement of social change.\n\nUnder the Stars 
 will include speakers and stories	from	the community including staff, board 
 members, partners, clients and donors who are working to end homelessness 
 in Marin County. Live-streamed activities from 6–8 pm PST, hosted by 
 Executive Director, Mark Shotwell, will include remarks by Marin County 
 Supervisor Damon Connolly and a special video message by U.S. Congressman 
 Jared Huffman.\n\nParticipants can register as individuals or form teams 
 with friends and family. Once registered, participants get access to their 
 own fundraising page with tips and templates to help them gather support 
 from their networks, spread the word, and manage their fundraising 
 journey.\n\nThere are awards for highest fundraising individuals and teams, 
 a virtual goody bag from local retailers for registered participants, and a 
 silent auction. Registration is $25 per person for adults and youth ages 13 
 and up and FREE for kids 12 and under. The first 100 paid registered 
 participants receive a FREE event t-shirt from Ritter Center’s new 
 merchandise store.\n
