One night isn't a lot, but it can make a whole lot of difference
Every night, thousands of Australians experience homelessness. But it doesn't have to be that way. This year I'm 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
13
Individual support programs
36
Beds
145
Meals
As a Vinnies CEO Sleepout Ambassador

Congratulations Barry on your 15th CEO sleepout in 2025. We've known you for 13 of these and it never ceases to amaze how you rug up and embrace discomfort for this great cause. May we never have to experience this for real in our lives. Thank you for all you do to prevent homelessness for the community. Simonne & Guy xx
