You may of noticed a group of students sleeping outside at UNBC. This may of made you think, what in the world are they doing? Well, these students are part of a national campaign known as 5 Days for the Homeless. The group at UNBC is raising money for the local society, Community Partners Addressing Homelessness. We reached out to Bridget Russell to find out more about 5 Days and how people can support them.
