Calling all Schools, Scout Troops, Civic Groups, Faith Based organizations, Companies, and Communities - - - 

Here's how to take the CCYA Pajama Pants Challenge:

#1: Pick your date and host a CCYA Pajama Pants Challenge to raise awareness and support for homeless and foster care youth.

#2: Invite students, teachers, club members, workers, congregation members and more to donate $1.00 or more to wear their favorite pair of pajama pants to school, work, church, . . . Be creative, host competitions and challenges between classes, grade levels, and company departments to increase awareness and support.

#3: When someone asks WHY you are wearing your pajama pants, tell them "Because Every Youth Deserves a Safe Place to Sleep!"

#4: Get the word out! Post photos and news on your social media to share your groups' Pajama Pants Challenge and share photos for CCYA to post.

#5: Contact Angela Thornton at CCYA by calling 770-333-9447 x135 or emailing athornton@ccyakids.org to schedule a delivery or CCYA pick up of your groups' donation; or make your donation online by clicking the Donate button on this web site; or mail a check to CCYA Pajama Pants Challenge, 2221 Austell Road, SW, Marietta, Georgia 30008.
