One night isn't a lot, but it can make a whole lot of difference

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? Donating $100 can make a huge difference to people who need it most.

So far this year I helped provide

You’re a great man Stephen. Such a wonderful cause… it’s just not right that so many people sleep rough in such an affluent society. Sorry it’s not a large donation this time. Next time. Can you please send me a Facebook friend request? Tried to send you one, but I can’t. There’s no add friend button on your page. Listen to you as often as I can in the mornings mate. You’re best on Canberra radio. Anyway, thanks for doing it for such a great course.
