There are 6 fundamental needs that humans require to live: air, shelter, water, food and sleep. At Habitat we support families to access shelter and water because we know housing is the foundation for real change. A home is the key to a better life for our partner families.

It was great to have the @twopalmsmedia team out on site at our bushfire recovery day in NSW! They made hard work removing debris and splitting wood look easy! Interested in volunteering for our bushfire recovery program? Click the link in our bio!

On #WorldToiletDay we acknowledge the 2.5 billion

On #WorldToiletDay we acknowledge the 2.5 billion who don't have access to sanitation and hygiene. In partnerships with @dfat 's #ANCP and @vietnamhabitat our project Safer Water, Safer Lives in Vietnam helps create facilities for young girls to manage their menstruation in privacy, safely and hygienically through having access to a toilet. The project also promotes education around improved waste management practices in communities and schools.

In partnership with @habitatforhumanityfiji and @DFAT #ANCP developed the Build Back Safer training package as part of our Disaster Resilience and Recovery projects. With Cyclone season around the corner we know that for every $1 invested in disaster readiness $7 is saved in disaster recovery. #AustralianAid #AHP #Fiji #BuildBackSafer

#DidYouKnow 785 million people globally live witho

#DidYouKnow 785 million people globally live without access to clean water. Their homes don't have running water or facilities like showers or toilets like ours. Millions of people including children die every year from diseases associated with inadequate water supply, sanitation and hygiene. This is why we work towards United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 6) in achieving clean water and sanitation for everyone.

This is Nicole our CEO and she wants to share an important message. With only ten years to 2030, there’s no time to waste. SDG-11, which focuses on sustainable cities and communities, is at risk of not only being met, but moving backwards due to COVID-19. To meet the SDG 11 we need to prepare for the impact of COVID-19 on vulnerable communities and rapid urbanization that is upon us. With an additional 2 billion, 60% of the world's population will be living in urban areas by 2030. We need to ensure that housing policy and systems can ensure families have safe, affordable, and adequate housing because we know that is the only way to ensure we will meet the SDG 11 goal of sustainable communities which must be affordable, inclusive, safe, and resilient. Housing is critical in the advancement of a better urban future.

It’s NAIDOC week - a week of celebrating the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We've enjoyed a partnership with KAMBU Progress Association in Ipswich, QLD for a number of years. Kambu provides long term support and accommodation for indigenous families who are unable to secure mainstream housing due to finance or other considerations. We've been able to support KAMBU by painting, repairing and refurbishing some of their homes. Thanks to our volunteers for their hard work and to KAMBU for the great partnership! #NAIDOC2020 #NAIDOCWeek #NAIDOC

Thank you @sharncoombes and the amazing team for your hard work yesterday on our #BushfireRecovery day in the Blue Mountains! 👏🏼♥️ Giving your time and volunteering makes the world of difference to the Aussie families who are still recovering a year later from the devastating bushfire. As we approach Christmas it’s important to remember that over 2,000 homes were lost in NSW alone and many families are still rebuilding and living in temporary housing. #HeartofHabitat #HabitatAustralia #HabitatforHumanity #GiveBack #Volunteer

Meet Dave! Dave is one of our loyal and commited volunteers. Dave has been on over 100 volunteer days including Brush with Kindness and Bushfire Recovery and a Global Village build to Nepal. Dave shared what it is about Habitat that keeps him coming back after all these years: “ I still think it’s a fantastic operation. Otherwise, I wouldn’t come back. It’s really rewarding and the people on the activities are great too. It is a really great concept, and it does things that make a real difference. I think people can give money quite easily, but getting out there, getting your hands dirty, and meeting people makes just as such a difference. It’s just the right thing to do to go out and help.” We are so lucky to have Dave’s support!
