It’s hard to believe that just one night can change everything, but it truly can!

Just one night may seem like a small commitment, but for thousands of Australians, it symbolizes the ongoing struggle of homelessness. Each night, around 116,000 Australians do not have a safe place to call home. This is not just a statistic—it represents real people, families, and lives disrupted by circumstances beyond their control. 

In June 2025, I am participating in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout to shed light on this pressing issue and raise funds for the St Vincent de Paul Society, an organization dedicated to supporting those in need. On this night, I will experience what it’s like to sleep outside—a stark reminder of the harsh realities faced by so many.

The thought of facing the elements, with nothing but a blanket and the stars overhead, is daunting for me. But it pales in comparison to the fear, uncertainty, and isolation that individuals experiencing homelessness endure every single night. It’s a sobering reality that spurs me into action.

To create a meaningful impact in the lives of those who are struggling, I need your support. Your generous donation can provide critical resources, like food, shelter, and support services, for those who are desperately seeking a way out. Together, we can help break the devastating cycle of homelessness and offer hope to our fellow Australians.

Will you stand with me in this important mission? Every contribution matters, and your kindness could change lives. Thank you for joining me in this fight against homelessness and for believing that together, we can make a difference.
