Congratulations to Dr Stephen Utick OAM on receiving the Medal of the Order of Australia for his service to community and conservation.

For more than 50 years, Steven has been a member of our Waramanga Conference. Over these years, he has supported people facing hardship by showing up with care, respect, and a deep belief in the dignity of every person.

As he says, real change starts with people. Thank you Stephen 💙

Have you ever thought about giving a food hamper? Unpack one with us 👇

For $81, you can provide a hamper packed with essentials like:
🥛 Long-life milk
🍝 Pasta
🥫 Tinned goods

Simple items, but for someone doing it tough, it can mean everything.

Food that lasts. Food that means someone doesn’t have to go hungry.

With rental costs climbing, fuel prices skyrocketing and household budgets being stretched to the limit, more and more people are being forced to choose between buying food or paying rent.

Will you give a food hamper this Winter?

Make a tax-deductible donation before 30 June: https://cg.vinnies.org.au/0hc

Winter has arrived, bringing cold temperatures, freezing rain, and biting wind...

And as the nights grow colder, and the cost of living pressures are rising, people experiencing homelessness in ACT and the surrounding region are desperate for shelter, food, warmth, and support.

But tonight, YOU can Gift A Night Off the Streets to sponsor a night's crisis accommodation to support a person struggling on our streets in this cold winter weather.

Because when you’re alone and sleeping rough, it’s nice to know someone is looking out for you. ❤️

Gift A Night Off the Streets tonight: https://bit.ly/gift-a-night-act

Provide a warm bed, hot meal, and clean clothes to someone doing it tough.

Hi, I’m Mike from Vinnies 👋

Every day, I meet people like David*, pushed into homelessness by a sudden crisis. One month he had stable work and a home… the next, he couldn’t afford rent and was sleeping rough in the cold ❄️

“I couldn’t believe how quickly it happened,” David said.

It’s happening more and more. People who never expected to need help are now asking where they’ll sleep or when they’ll eat.

At Vinnies, we’re doing all we can, but we can’t do it without you. Your generous donation can help provide a room in crisis accommodation this winter – the first step to rebuilding a life.

💛 Please give generously today: https://vinnies.link/3xyrfp
