One night isn’t much but together, we can turn one cold night into lasting change.
Every night, thousands of Australians experience homelessness. It’s confronting. And it doesn’t have to be that way.
This year marks my 7th year participating in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout. Once again, I’ll spend a winter night sleeping outdoors to raise funds for the St Vincent de Paul Society and to help shine a light on the harsh reality many Australians face every single day.
One night for me is uncomfortable.
For more than 122,000 Australians, it’s every night.
To help break the devastating cycle of homelessness, I’m aiming to raise $250,000 this year — and I need your support.
I will be matching every dollar donated and Consep will then match that total
That means:
-
Every $1 you donate becomes $4. (Your $1, My $1, Consep's $2)
-
Every $100 becomes $400.
-
Every $500 becomes $2,000.
The matching will continue until we surpass last year’s total of $210,000.
Your generosity doesn’t just provide food, shelter or support services.
It restores dignity, hope and stability to people who need it most.
Thank you for standing with me.
Your support truly changes lives.
So far this year I helped provide
