One night isn't a lot, but it can make a whole lot of difference

Every night, thousands of Australians experience homelessness. And that's not good enough - it doesn't have to be that way. This year I'm taking part in my 5th Vinnies CEO Sleepout to raise money for the St Vincent de Paul Society to support those in need in our local community. While this one night is only 1% of the experience and reality for too many, I will be sleeping outside to raise money to help fund the amazing programs Vinnies runs, to support others in need. This is such an eye-opening, spirit awakening event - and you can help others. 

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.
