Help me make my eighth sleepout count.
I keep doing this because the issue of homelessness stays with me long after the night ends.
During past sleepouts, I’ve spoken with people who
previously had steady jobs and stable lives until one setback changed
everything. Those conversations are a reminder of how fragile security can be,
and how vital community support is when things fall apart.
Sleeping outside for one night doesn’t compare to the true reality
of being homeless, but it does help shine a light on this important issue.
I’m asking for your support because the work of Vinnies
matters. Donations fund meals, shelter, support and pathways forward, and they
reach people at a time when hope can feel very distant.
It's clear that things are pretty tough for so many at the moment, especially with all the global unrest and its knock-on effects hitting households and businesses. Please try to imagine how much harder it is for those already doing it really tough, with nowhere to call home, no safety net and no extra savings to fall back on during this harder period.
If you’re able to give, please do. Your generosity will help ensure this sleepout leads to something lasting, not just for one night, but well beyond it.
So far this year I helped provide

Great work Pat, you are right that one night sleeping out doesn't fix things now, but it raises awareness and educates the more fortunate ones which will result in more support for the unfortunate ones. Matt
