One night isn't a lot, but it can make a whole lot of difference
Every night, thousands of Australians are without a safe place to sleep. As business leaders, we talk about resilience, about leadership, about making an impact—but how can we lead effectively if we turn a blind eye to those in our communities who need support the most?
That’s why I’m taking part in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout - not just to raise money, but to take action. For one night, I’ll swap my bed for concrete, to gain a small glimpse into the harsh reality faced by so many. But this isn’t about one night - it’s about making a real difference in breaking the cycle of homelessness.
At The CEO Institute, we believe no business leader should ever walk alone—and that belief extends beyond boardrooms and businesses. We have a responsibility to lift others up where we can.
That’s where you come in. A donation of $100 can provide warm meals, safe shelter, and vital support services for someone in need. If you’re able, please contribute—because real leadership is about action, and change starts with us.
