One Night in the Cold to Help Thousands Find Warmth.
Each night that I go home to a warm bed and the
comfort of my loved ones, I’m acutely aware that thousands of Australians do
not have a safe place to sleep. Homelessness is not just a circumstance, it is
an emotion, a fear, an uncertainty that no one should have to endure.
Last year, during my first Vinnies CEO
Sleepout, I listened to courageous people share their lived experiences of
homelessness. As the cold night settled like ice on top of my sleeping bag, I
gained a small glimpse into a reality that so many face every single day. When
the morning came and I returned to the arms of my family, I was reminded that
this is a privilege not afforded to everyone.
At Francom, we see every day how financial
hardship and debt can be the first steps toward homelessness. That’s why we
remain committed to offering compassionate, realistic pathways to help people
regain stability. And it’s why I am once again taking part in the Vinnies
CEO Sleepout, because awareness isn’t enough. We must be proactive,
not just reactive, if we truly want to break the cycle.
This year, my goal is to raise $35,000
to support essential services such as crisis accommodation, food, wraparound
programs, and long‑term support. These are the foundations that help rebuild
lives and prevent homelessness from re‑occurring.
But I can’t do it alone.
Your support, whether big or small, has
the power to create real, lasting change.
Together, let’s continue the conversation.
Together, let’s drive meaningful action.
Together, we can help build a future where every person has a safe place to
call home.
So far this year I helped provide

Individual support programs

Beds

Homelessness isn't a character flaw or a choice. It's a state of being that can find anyone. I'm donating to Georgina & Kim for their CEO Sleepout because I believe everyone deserves the basic dignity of a safe space. I'm proud to support CEO Sleepout and the vital work being done to change lives, one safe space at a time.
