Are you ready to help put youth homelessness to bed?
Our aim is for all young people to reconnect with their family and community. Or where that isn’t possible, to be able to access safe, stable accommodation, and the right support to enable young people to move beyond their experience of homelessness to become positive, independent, contributing members of society.
But we need your help.
By fundraising, you are raising essential funds to help break the cycle of homelessness, thereby supporting more young people to lead positive lives.
Continue your generous fundraising by approaching and sharing with everyone that you are sleeping at the MCG on Wednesday 10 May to raise funds to address a chasm in youth housing.
Donate today. We’ve got plenty of tips and resources to help you get started. All donations $2 and over are tax deductible.

Hear from the people we support
Meet Ali
"Dad left home when I was little, so I never really knew him. I didn’t have any contact with him after I was four."
Meet Sally
"My Dad and I were always close. Mum passed away when I was 7 and I didn’t have any brothers or sisters, so it was just the two of us for a really long time."
Meet Cass
"Both my parents were drug addicted and violent, and I was in and out of foster care until age 6. My foster care experience was extremely traumatic."
