One night isn't a lot, but it can make a whole lot of difference
Every night, thousands of Australians experience homelessness. But it doesn't have to be that way. This year our team is taking part in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout to raise money for the St Vincent de Paul Society to support Australians in need. For one night, all of us will be sleeping outside as part of an eye-opening experience to raise awareness and bring home the realities of homelessness.
To help break the devastating cycle of homelessness, we need your support. Will you help us reach our target? Donating $100 can make a huge difference to people who need it most.
So far this year we helped provide
48
Individual support programs
126
Beds
506
Meals
Thank you to our donors

Good on you for doing this! It's not an easy thing to sign up for. It puts a spotlight on something people usually avoid thinking about. Hope it’s not too brutal overnight.
