🌙 DUBBO COMMUNITY SLEEPOUT 2026 | UNITING FOR CHANGE

Tonight marks a powerful moment for our community as we come together for the Club Dubbo CEO & Community Sleepout 2026 — standing in solidarity to raise awareness and support for people experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity across our region.

We are deeply grateful for the overwhelming support shown by community leaders, local businesses, and CALD community members, all coming together with one shared purpose: to make a meaningful difference.

From strong registrations to generous donations, the response has been truly inspiring. As we prepare to welcome attendees this evening, the atmosphere is one of unity, compassion, and collective action.

The night will begin with a series of community activities, connection opportunities, and reflections, before participants move into their sleepout spaces — whether swag, tent, or sleeping gear — to experience a symbolic night of awareness and empathy.

💬 “Community services thrive when people come together with compassion, dignity, and a shared responsibility to care for one another.” —Connecting Community Services

To everyone who has donated — thank you. Your generosity is helping us move closer to our fundraising goal, with almost half already achieved. Every contribution makes a real and lasting impact.

The donation page will remain open until the end of June (financial year), and all donations over $2 are tax-deductible.

🙏 We extend our sincere thanks to everyone who has supported this cause — whether through attendance, donation, or advocacy. Your involvement matters.

Together, we are not only raising funds — we are raising awareness, hope, and community strength.

Community impact is strengthened when diverse voices come together — and contributions like this help build a more inclusive, compassionate, and connected Dubbo.
