Vinnies Community Sleepout
On Friday 23 October 2020, Vinnies will be holding our first virtual NSW Vinnies Community Sleepout to shine a spotlight on homelessness in our local community. Participants across twelve locations in NSW, including Armidale, will come together in a state-wide effort to raise important funds and awareness for those in our local community who need it the most.
By choosing to sleep out at home in your car, backyard or on your couch participants will help raise vital funds for local Vinnies services and programs in Armidale whilst connecting with some of the realities faced by those experiencing homelessness and disadvantage.
For more information go to Vinnies Community Sleepout.
