Please support me on my 3rd CEO Sleepout to raise funds to help Australians in need !

This year I'm 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, I'll be sleeping outside as part of an eye-opening experience to raise awareness and bring home the realities of homelessness.

I have worked very closely with Vinnies in recent years via our partnership in Container Deposit Schemes such as "Return and Earn" in NSW and "Recycle Rewards" in Tasmania. It is a pleasure to work alongside this wonderful organisation and see the fabulous work that they do in communities all across Australia. The Sleepout is a great way to support Vinnies and also raise further funds to support these much required programs. 

Is a sad truth that thousands of Australians experience homelessness. But it doesn't have to be that way. To help break the devastating cycle of homelessness, I need your support. Will you help me to reach my target? Donating $100 can make a huge difference to people who need it most.
