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 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.
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.
So far this year I helped provide

Hi Father, Thanks for raising awareness and support for those experiencing homelessness. I wanted to make a donation in support of your efforts, but also to thank you personally. Last year, when my nephew Nathaniel was critically ill in hospital, your prayers meant a great deal to our family during a very difficult and uncertain time. We have never forgotten your kindness, compassion and support. Wishing you all the best for the CEO Sleepout. God bless.
