Behind every frontline service are people under pressure. This grant round supports 18 organisations to strengthen staff wellbeing and keep vital care going.
Frontline homelessness workers are used to carrying complexity. They navigate trauma, housing instability, family violence, mental health crises and deep financial distress every day.
Our End of Year appeal was generously supported by our giving community allowing 20 smaller, grassroots organisations to scale up their prevention programs to intervene early and stop homelessness before it starts.
Responding to poverty and homelessness was the aim of our collective giving campaign ‘A Fair Go’. 20 grants are empowering grassroots responses to these vulnerabilities
CafeSmart brought us together throughout Homelessness week, using coffee and community action to raise an incredible $201,000 for local grassroots organisations.
Housing prevents and ends homelessness and that’s why we’ve focused on funding 17 grassroots organisations across Australia to deliver housing outcomes for those facing homelessness.
We’ve just distributed $161,000 in funding to give care and support to those facing hidden homelessness. The homelessness crisis gripping Australia is mostly hidden from us, with the majority of people without a safe place to call home going unseen, slipping under the radar.
Young people facing homelessness have an uphill battle in finding and keeping a safe affordable home in Australia. Safety nets are failing to provide security for vulnerable young people, creating traumatic cycles of homelessness, violence, and poverty. Together we’ve provided training employment and educational outcomes for young people.
The homelessness sector is in a ‘climate of crisis,’ where opportunities that strengthen frontline organisations and staff often fall to the wayside and are unable to be prioritised. That’s why we are funding 3 areas to build capacity, boost advocacy and drive systemic change.
