Why and what impact?
Thanks to your donations, YHI has made incredible strides in supporting young people toward a brighter future. Key impacts include:
Education & Employment
By collaborating with Youth Projects, we’ve increased participants' access to education and employment. Currently, 79% with identified needs are actively pursuing job placements or qualifications - promoting financial independence and reintegration into society.
Skills Development
From budgeting to grocery shopping and cooking, participants are building the skills they need for long-term independence, allowing them to manage their daily lives with confidence.
Physical & Mental Health
YHI connect participants with allied health services, ensuring they receive the vital medical and mental health care they need.
Safety & Legal Support
Most participants now have comprehensive safety plans, ensuring they know how to seek help in times of crisis. Legal challenges are addressed through partnerships with community legal services, offering free legal advice to resolve outstanding issues.
Together, we’re changing lives by providing more than just housing, YHI empowers young people to thrive—giving them the support, skills, and stability they need to build a better future.
We Have The Power To End Youth Homelessness
Every night, over 122,000 Australians experience homelessness. That’s more than the maximum capacity of the great MCG. And alarmingly, a quarter of all these people are between the ages of 12 and 24.
In Victoria, more than 7,600 young people experience homelessness every night.
Young people need more than a safe place to live, they need stability and support to develop life skills, heal from trauma, and to transition to independence. Your support is needed now more than ever.
Homelessness is not a choice. Homelessness doesn't discriminate.
I'm seeking your support by asking you to donate so that I can reach my fundraising target. Every dollar counts!
