This COVID crisis is not going to end for anyone, until it ends for everyone. We Habitat for Humanity Australia pledge to stand in solidarity with all our neighbours to #EndCovidForAll !
.
While Australia can now breathe a small sigh of relief, too many of our neighbours around the world are ill-equipped to deal with a pandemic.
.
So it's time we offered a helping hand.
.
Because as Australians we take care of our neighbours. It's just what we do.
.
Visit http://ow.ly/BsTx30qZSFd and pledge to stand in
solidarity with all our neighbours, and encourage our
government to provide vital support to vulnerable nations.

It's the only way we can end COVID for all.

In NSW, our Brush With Kindness program has assisted in the renovations of crisis accommodation. We've worked in partnership with a service that provides overnight and short-term accommodation for vulnerable and at-risk males over 18 in the inner city. The service provides a place of safety where men can start to address their needs. Everyone deserves a decent place to call home and this work is so important in ensuring these people have a safe place to seek refuge. Our housing system is broken and we need to be working together to fix this.

This week is Homelessness Week. A week dedicated to raising awareness to end homelessness in Australia and build more social housing. Our system is broken, but together we can fix it. Help us provide shelter for people in need through our Brush with Kindness program and home-building program in Australia.

More than half of the $100,000 target to secure the innovative Studio Purpose Youth Homelessness accommodation project has been secured! Project partners are now campaigning to raise the remainder of funds to proceed with this unique initiative in Murray Bridge, SA to deliver accommodation and diverse support for young people at risk of homelessness. A vacant property has been secured, cross-agency partnerships formalised and a broad program designed to address the needs of young people and Habitat for Humanity is nearly ready to begin the construction phase - to construct safe accommodation for youths experiencing homelessness with a focus on health and well being, education, development, connection and engagement. On any one night 116,000 people are sleeping rough in Australia. Together we can help end homelessness in Australia by creating accommodation such as this.

We don't give hand-outs; we give people hand-ups by building homes in partnership with families in Australia and overseas. We work with the most vulnerable families to build new homes transforming lives, and support development of housing finance and construction markets so that more working poor families can access affordable and safe housing.

Why we do the work we do? Because rebuilding and repairing inadequate housing helps families overcome the circumstances that allow poverty to fester. A home is a stabilising force for a family and can be truly transformative for health, education, opportunity & economic security. #BuildforChange #HabitatAustralia 📷@habitatnepal

“I've had a dream all my life to own a family home and one of my biggest dreams is to foster care children. “This house will allow me to do that, to give back to a lot of kids.” We're getting so close to handing the keys over to Tracey and her family to their new Habitat home. One where Tracey can fulfill her dreams of giving back to other children, a space of her families own where they can create new memories, and hang pictures on the wall.
