sleepout info 3 steps

30 years ago, a few Mission Australia staff took their passion to the streets as they slept outside to raise awareness of homelessness in our country.

Since that night in 1988, our enthusiastic participants and their generous supporters have raised more than $3 million and in that time together we’ve helped over five million disadvantaged Australians.

Today, homelessness remains a major issue in our society. In response, we’re encouraging you and your friends to host a Sleepout and raise awareness about the growing crisis whenever and however it suits you.

This could be camping in your backyard or hosting a talent show, bake sale or a dinner party.The choices are endless and we encourage participants to think creatively to organise a fun and successful fundraising activity.
