Virgin Mobile Campaign Inspires Daring Stunts to Tackle Youth Homeless

Boy and Girl

Can you imagine yourself living in a tree for an entire day? How about building an igloo in the freezing cold over night? We can’t imagine ourselves performing these gutsy tasks either. However, what if it was in the name of youth homelessness?

Virgin Mobile has teamed up with Re*Generation in their newest, and may we add boldest, campaign “Do Whatever it Takes,” to help put an end to youth homelessness. This campaign, which is in response to the first ever National Youth Homeless Awareness Month, has encouraged fearless people to perform ridiculous stunts if their pledge is met.

Virgin Mobile’s manufactured couple Sparah™ (Spencer Falls + Sarah Carroll) has agreed to tattoo their inner lips with the words “Virgin Mobil” if their $5,000 pledge is met. Other wacky stunts include waxing man areas (ouch), learning gymnastics tricks then successfully nailing them and agreeing to be shot with a paintball gun!

These crazy stunts are all in an attempt to help the 2,000,000 United States and Canadian youth who are left homeless and to help Virgin Mobil fulfill their goal of raising 100,000 for this cause.
