If you are cold, so are your Cryptids!  The Fresno Night-Walkers is a play on the Fresno Nightcrawlers cryptid.  While I am all about being silly and having fun, homelessness is a real challenge. 

According to https://nationalhomeless.org/ - 

Up to 40% of homeless youth identify as LGBTQ, while the general youth population is only 10% LGBTQ.

In Washington D.C. alone, 43% of homeless youth identify as LGBTQ.

26% of homeless LGBTQ youth report being forced out of their homes solely because of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

Those stats like those that interested me in homelessness all the way back in high school, for a sociology class.  It's stuck with me ever since, now today I have the opportunity to help those in my local community.  While I suspect most of them do not identify as LGBTQ, the bigger issue here is lifting up those in our community who need help, regardless of 'categories'. 

So I am asking you to help me -join in on the cryptid theme team fun, OR make a donation to help housing insecurity in our community.

Thank you from the bottom of my 'night walking cyptid pants',
