One night isn't a lot, but it can make a whole lot of difference to those less fortunate
I never stop being grateful for the good luck I've had in life. Not everyone is so lucky.
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 and participate in the Sleepout? Donating $100 can make a huge difference to people who need it most.
So far this year I helped provide

Perhaps you could fight for higher taxes on high income earners like CEOS and get govt to spend money to solve homelessness - which worked in COVID times.
