My 17th year as a homeless lawyer.
Have been sleeping out as a homeless lawyer for 16 years. This is my 17th year and I hope to raise as much as possible to help as many homeless persons as possible.
Every night, thousands of Australians experience homelessness. But it doesn't have to be that way. This year I am again taking part in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout to raise money for the St Vincent de Paul Society to support Australians in need. For one night, I'll be sleeping outside as part of an eye-opening experience to raise awareness and bring home the realities of homelessness.
To help break the devastating cycle of homelessness, I need your support. Will you help me to reach my target? Donating $100 can make a huge difference to people who need it most.
So far this year I helped provide

101
Individual support programs

265
Beds

1062
Meals
As a Vinnies CEO Sleepout Ambassador
