Fundraiser: Vinnies CEO Sleepout

May 4, 2026

Our CEO, Brendan Taber, is taking part of the Vinnies CEO Sleepout to raise money for the St Vincent de Paul Society to support Australians in need. For one night, he’ll be sleeping outside as part of an eye-opening experience to raise awareness and bring home the realities of homelessness.

Every night, thousands of Australians experience homelessness. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

To help break the devastating cycle of homelessness, we need your support. Will you help to reach our target? Donating $100 can make a huge difference to people who need it most.
