On 20 June, Mr E and 180 business, community and government leaders participated in Canberra's 10th Vinnies CEO Sleepout at Hangar 47, Canberra Airport.

CEOs braved a chilly night with just three sheets of cardboard to sleep on and a cup of soup to warm their bellies. CEOs had the option of sleeping inside the hangar or on the apron of the tarmac. The majority of participants, including Mr E, opted to sleep on the tarmac where temperatures got down to -4!

Thanks to your donation we've been able to raise an incredible $812,506 - a record breaking result!! This will help us make a real impact to the lives of people experiencing homelessness and living below the poverty line here in Canberra.

Your contribution will help us to continue supporting programs like Night Patrol, Clemente and St Nick’s Young Carers programs which don’t receive any government funding. 

Thank you for your valuable support of the Vinnies CEO Sleepout - with your donation we can help to break the cycle of homelessness for many Canberrans and continue our services that are on the ground helping people every day.

Kind regards,

Vinnies CEO Sleepout Team
