Stand With Me. Support the Vinnies CEO Sleepout.
This is my first year that I’m taking part in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout. I'll be joining leaders across the country to spend one night outside in a powerful show of solidarity with the 122,000+ Australians experiencing homelessness.
But for many, this isn’t just one night — it’s every night.
Right now, women aged 50+ are the fastest-growing group of people experiencing homelessness in Australia. As a woman over 50, this issue hits home. Many of these women have worked their whole lives, raised families, cared for others — only to find themselves without a safe place to call home due to rising rents, job loss, relationship breakdowns or unexpected life events.
This could happen to any of us.
I’ve set a personal goal to raise $5,000 to support St Vincent de Paul Society’s frontline services — providing warm meals, safe accommodation, and long-term support to people doing it tough.
? Will you stand with me?
Your donation, no matter the size, will go directly to those who need it most. Just $100 can help provide emergency accommodation and support to someone facing homelessness tonight.
Because everyone deserves a safe place to sleep.
