Join the fight against homelessness

UniSA and the University of ÐÂÀË²ÊÆ± are coming together on Thursday 21 August to raise important funds and awareness for the most vulnerable people in our local community.

Homelessness is a growing problem; more people than ever are turning to Vinnies for help. With your support they can continue to provide a hand up, not just a handout, to assist thousands of people experiencing homelessness every night.

By choosing to sleep out for one night, you can experience just a small part of what those facing homelessness and disadvantage do each and every day. So swap out your comfy beds and home-cooked meals for a night and help make a difference in the lives of those who don't get to make that choice.
