An important message from the CEO of the Milling Council, Dominic Nolan about this year's CEO sleep-out

Hi, we've had the first few days of slightly cooler temperatures in Brisbane, heading towards the 21 June target date to ‘sleep rough’ with around 120 CEOs from Brisbane.  I’ve raised around $2,800 so far, aiming to get to $7,000, thank you if you have been able to provide a donation.  The CEO Sleepout helps raise funds and awareness for the homeless across Australia.  This is the second year I've participated, it was a great experience in 2011.

Last year we listened to the story of a man who two years earlier was a successful businessman.  He lost his job, and then his family, and after a few months of couch surfing, ended up on the street.  After about 18 months on the street, the Society got him into a unit.  He had started working again part-time, and his goal was to be back on the other side of the equation – helping to raise funds for the homeless – over the next few years.  It was a pretty inspiring, and very real, experience to listen to.

‘Sleeping rough’ is not particularly difficult when you know you have a warm bed and comfortable home to go to after one night, I am looking forward to the experience again this year.

Please follow this link if you are able to make a donation of any amount http://www.ceosleepout.org.au/ceos/qld-ceos/profile/?ceo=758 and again, thanks to those who have already been able to contribute. If you’d rather not pay with credit card on the Internet, please let me know and I can get the cash from you when convenient.

Thanks,

Dominic.
