One cold night in Canberra isn't a lot, but it can make a big difference

Proud Participant – 2025 Vinnies CEO Sleepout
I’m proud to stand with a collective of inspiring women in the building, construction and property industry as part of Women Building Change “Wall of Pledges”, supporting the 2025 Vinnies CEO Sleepout.
This campaign isn’t just about fundraising, it’s about women in our industry leading the way when it comes to creating real impact for those doing it toughest. Together, we’re showing what it truly means to build shelter, safety and security for people experiencing homelessness.
Led by a team of passionate changemakers, Women Building Change invites sponsors, suppliers, builders and businesses to pledge products, services or funds - all of which will be recorded on the windows at Solace Creations Fyshwick, creating a growing “Wall of Pledges” that symbolises hope, generosity and community.
Pledged items will be auctioned through ALLBIDS, with 100% of proceeds going to Vinnies Canberra Region to support housing and homelessness services. These funds will be pooled and shared across all participating CEO Sleepout Women Building Change within the campaign.
