“I’m calling on all people, business leaders, philanthropists and anyone who is kind and compassionate enough, to share their blessings with people who are less fortunate.” Chris Christofi 

I understand the importance of economic security, having made and lost fortunes when a successful business partnership I shared collapsed without warning early in my career. I had to move back to my parents’ home to repay my debts and start again. I founded Reventon from scratch in 2005, which has helped over 3000 Australians get into the property market. 

Helping people experiencing homelessness is a cause very close to my heart, and one my wife Billie and I have personally supported for many years.

Having taken part in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout for the past three years, my team and I have raised more than $180K, placing in the top 0.5% of fundraisers nationwide. For this year’s sleepout, I plan to raise $100K, pledging to match those proceeds dollar-for-dollar from my own funds.

As part of his Brick by Brick charity initiative, I am building a house on pre purchased land that is completely paid off which we will sell in association with Vinnies Victoria. With the estimated sale price of $700,000 going toward the work Vinnies volunteers do.
