One night outside can make a big difference

A safe space to call home and rest each night is something many of us take for granted. 

This year I'm taking part in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout to raise money for the St Vincent de Paul Society to support people 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? Donating $100 can make a huge difference.
