Every night, thousands of Australians experience homelessness, but it doesn’t have to be that way. This Thursday, for the third time, I’ll be spending one of the longest and coldest nights of the year at Adelaide Oval, participating in the 2024 Vinnies CEO Sleepout.    Witnessing the daily rise in homelessness in the city and parklands during my commute is both confronting and heartbreaking. The housing crisis and increasing cases of domestic violence are exacerbating an already dire situation. Recent statistics indicate that 122,000 Australians (approx. 7500 South Australians) are experiencing homelessness, though the true number is likely much higher.   The funds raised by the Vinnies CEO Sleepout provide essential support and services to Australians in need. Together, we can help break the cycle of homelessness for good. If you’d like to donate to this important cause, please visit my fundraising page: https://lnkd.in/gXGVGvXi

Colleagues and friends, a personal request: please donate to Dharma Care's Winter Warmer Appeal to provide sleeping bags, warm clothes, food and hygiene packs to those who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness this winter. Donate now at https://lnkd.in/gSB8edri Everyone is talking about it but governments are not doing enough fast enough. It really is a "wicked problem". We're losing the battle to provide enough housing. But we can alleviate some of the suffering. We can provide a glimmer of hope in the midst of despair. No one wants to be in this position, no one. The housing crisis is the “worst it’s ever been”, according to Anglicare's April 2024 report. Tweed and Byron Shires in northern New South Wales have the worst homelessness stats in the state. But you've all heard the stats - over and again. Homelessness is not what you think. It now ensnares a wide range of people - working families, young people, single mothers, those with mental health issues and disabilities, and those you would not expect - previous business executives, teachers - and the list goes on. We want to raise $75K to ease the pain this winter. Please donate now at https://lnkd.in/gSB8edri.

Do you own your own home? Do you want to help end Homelessness in Australia? Every night 122,000 people in Australia sleep homeless. About 6000 of these people are veterans.

It’s a promise we all need to make, a promise to help end homelessness. And with Homes for Homes, we can.
