122,000 Australians slept without a roof over their heads last

122,000 Australians slept without a roof over their heads last night.

And while one night doesn’t come close to understanding the struggles of our homeless, it’s an opportunity to support those in need.

That’s why on 26 June our CEO, Omair Chodhry, will return for his 2nd Vinnies CEO Sleepout, spending a night in the cold to raise funds and awareness for homelessness in Australia on behalf of the Xanadu Group team (Helping Solutions, Helping Community Solutions and True Ability).

While many of us go home to warm beds and hot meals this winter, those on the street live though frigid nights, growling bellies and endless discomfort every single day.

Organisations like Vinnies are crucial in breaking this cycle by providing essential support.
