I'm sleeping out to support Australian's experiencing homelessness

My name is Matt, and in 2012, I was a homeless ice addict living in a park. These days, as Brand Ambassador to the Vinnies CEO Sleepout, I live a life that is centred on faith, connection, adventure, gratitude and impact. 

I am extremely passionate about supporting Australians at risk of, or experiencing homelessness, and so this year, I have set myself a goal to become the highest fundraiser for the Vinnies CEO Sleepout, with a target of $200,000.

Every single dollar raised, will go directly to the 'Vinnies 500 Homes in Five Years Project', as Vinnies partners with the Queensland Government, to build homes for homeless Queenslanders across the state. 

Right now all across Australia there are men women and children, who do not have a safe place to call home and we have an opportunity to make a real difference to their lives. 

The reality is, that we are far stronger together and the gift of a home is a gift that will impact generations to come. 

So please support me if you are able. Your generosity is deeply appreciated by me, by Vinnies and by those Australians who desperately need our help. 

So far this year I helped provide

When a young man nearly a decade ago, on the worst day of his life, needed someone to call. A church leader put us in touch. You took the call, from a stranger, on short notice and it meant the world to me. God bless you brother.
