Students become ‘homeless’ to raise awareness, money for growing issue

About 20 students stood out on a street corner in Lakewood Saturday night, ‘panhandling’ for a cause that is becoming a growing issue in Cleveland and surrounding neighborhoods.

For the 20th year, the ‘Youth Homeless Awareness Sleep Out’ program took place Saturday at the Lakewood Congregational Church.

Helen Fraunfelder has advocated for the homeless population for the last six years, but Fraunfelder’s parents began the sleep-out program at the church when they were teenagers 20 years ago.
