2024 Impact

Meet Sarah – a CEO Sleepout success story

No one should experience homelessness. Especially not a single mum with two kids. 

But soon after Sarah’s son was diagnosed with cancer, the family’s landlord issued a ‘no grounds’ eviction. 

They ended up sleeping in a tent, in the middle of winter.

Terrified for her children’s health, Sarah reached out to Vinnies for help. In less than a month, the family were offered transitional housing. And a path out of homelessness.

Funds raised by the Vinnies CEO Sleepout make this kind of lifechanging support possible. Please register this year, because everyone deserves a home.
