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 my first 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? Any donation can make a huge difference to people who need it most.
So far this year I helped provide

I remember Dad would always give us money when we passed a homeless person on the streets of Sydney and we would have homeless kids living in our house after he found them sleeping in clothing bins. This resonates deeply with me! I know do the same with my kids. Ashton often talk about the Mars Bar he bought for himself at 7Eleven, but instead decided to leave it on a homeless person’s sleeping bag for them to return to as a surprise. So proud of you Lee! Xx
