Vinnies CEO Sleepout

by | Jun 6, 2013 | Events, Loving Life

I’m sitting in my warm home office with the heater running and feeling blessed.  Imagine not having this, nor a warm bed to sleep in at night?

It’s amazing to me that there are more than 100,000 Australians homeless each night of the year.  We live in this amazing country – how can this be?

The goal of the Vinnies CEO Sleepout is not just to service the homeless, but to bring about an end to homelessness.

To date, the event has raised over $13 million of important funds for Vinnies Homeless Services nationally.

One of my clients, Damien Farrell, from Workplace Training Advisory Australia, is joining the dedicated mix of CEO’s taking the challenge and supporting awareness.

Please join me in supporting this worthwhile event.  Good luck to you all!
