Our CEO Damian Corney took on the challenge participating in the annual Vinny’s CEO Sleepout. Raising donations and awareness for homelessness around Australia.
Every night, thousands of Australians experience homelessness. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Grafico has been operating in North Melbourne for for over 14 years and we have unfortunately witnessed the effect of homelessness around the area directly over the years. The Vinny’s soup van operates weekly just around the corner from our warehouse so we’re very familiar with Vinny’s great work.
For one night, Damian slept outside as part of an eye-opening experience to raise awareness and bring home the realities of homelessness.
We were so proud to announce that we were able to smash our initial donation target and reach over $6000 in donations!
What does all that money bring?
- 19 Individual support programs
- 51 Beds
- 206 Meals
A great outcome and looking forward to getting involved in 2023’s event! For more check out the link below:
