One night isn't a lot, but it can make a whole lot of difference
Each night, thousands of Australians are without a safe place to sleep. It’s a confronting reality—one that shouldn't exist in a country like ours.
This year, I’m participating in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout, an initiative that sees leaders from across the country spending one night outside to raise vital funds and awareness for the St Vincent de Paul Society. It’s a small gesture, but one that offers a powerful insight into the experience of homelessness—and more importantly, helps drive meaningful support for those doing it tough.
To help break the cycle of homelessness, I need your support.
A contribution of $100 can make a genuine difference—whether it’s providing emergency accommodation, warm meals, or long-term support services for individuals and families in crisis.
If you're able, I’d be incredibly grateful for your donation. Together, we can help restore dignity, safety, and stability to those who need it most.

Proud of you
Thank You, Carmen for your empowering advocacy action in 'sleeping out' as Acting Queen Victoria Care CEO. My continued action also through my handknitted collar scarves also gives practical voice for daily comfort too, Anthea Davey- Griffin.
