Project Ideas

These social issues (and many more) represent the root causes that can lead a young person to experience homelessness. Our goal, through The Promise Project, is to raise awareness about these issues. The categories listed below are intended to give you some ideas and help you decide on a project topic. There are many social issues related to youth homelessness and you can choose beyond the ones listed on this page.

These topics will get you started on the direction of your project.  Your project may be a fundraiser, an awareness campaign, a creative solution, a food/clothing drive, a club to address an issue, a sleep out, a call to action, a march or walk, a challenge campaign, a song/video or creative project, or an advocacy campaign.  The list of what you can do your project on is only limited by your imagination!
