Students in Cambodia have had significant repairs done to one of their classrooms, along with the construction of handwashing facilities and the facilitation of a hygiene education program, thanks to the work of our implementing partner Habitat for Humanity Cambodia. This project is in partnership with @DFAT’s #ANCP, Habitat Cambodia and ANSA homes. ⁠

Every home build self-reliance. In partnership with @dfat ’s #ANCP, our implementing partner Habitat for Humanity Cambodia has built another home for Huch through our New Start New Life project. Huch's daughter was born deaf and with other disabilities, this has limited his earning capabilities to support his family and to repair their home. After partnering with Habitat Huch now has a home that is safe and secure for his family. ⁠

Monks believe that these pillars of service make our lives better in many ways. We believe volunteering is a great way to give back to your community and good for your well-being.⁠
.⁠
❤️Service connects us. When you serve, it's hard to feel lonely. In most scenarios, you have to go out into the world and help other people.⁠
.⁠
📢Service amplifies gratitude. Services give you a broad view of all that you have.⁠
.⁠
🤗 Service increases compassion. When you serve, you serve you see that the world needs what you have to offer.⁠
.⁠
🥰 Service builds self-esteem. Helping others tells you that you're making a difference in the world. You have a sense of meaning and purpose."- Jay Shetty, Live like Monk

Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience me

Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience mental ill-health every year? 🏠 For those Australians who experience mental ill-health, living in safe, secure and stable housing is an important part of their road to recovery. ❤️⁠
.⁠
Being in control of one’s housing can deliver positive mental health outcomes through feelings of empowerment and belonging, both of which are associated with greater resilience and the ability to cope with stressors among people with severe mental illness.⁠

📚 “Studies show that when we peruse "compassionate goals" those aimed at helping others or otherwise helping make the world a better place- we're less like to have symptoms of anxiety and depression than when we focus on improving or protecting our own status or reputation.
.
🤗 The act of giving activates the pleasure centre of our brain. It's win-win-win. This may be why those who help others tend to live longer, be healthier and have a better overall sense of well-being." -Jay Shetty.
.
❤️We believe our volunteers have experienced this sense of wellbeing after spending a day refurbishing a domestic violence shelter or building a chook shed for a family affected the by the bushfires.

Keep an eye on our social channels to stay up to date about when our volunteering program will resume after lockdown in NSW.

🌻R U OK? Day 🌻is the national day of action

🌻R U OK? Day 🌻is the national day of action dedicated to reminding everyone that everyday is the day to ask, “Are you OK?” and support those struggling with life's ups and downs. Today we recognise during lockdown and the pandemic that the whole world is facing extremely challenging times.
.
🏠 As an organisation that works to support vulnerable people access safe shelter we know the vital role a safe home plays in one’s physical and mental wellbeing.
.
❤️Staying at home is our best defence against the virus however not all of us are living in a safe and secure home. Whether it’s inadequate housing, homelessness, over-crowded housing, hostile living conditions, domestic violence, whatever the conditions are we recognise that we are all in the same storm but the not the same boat.
.
🏡Our homes have never been more vital to our health in every sense of the word as they are today. Please check in with loved ones and friends and ask them if they are ok.

Here are some important statistics on how housing and support and reduce symptoms of mental i’ll-health:

COVID has exacerbated two major issues in Australia: our competitive and overwhelming rental market, and domestic violence cases, both of which restrict access to safe and secure housing.

👍Happy International Charity Day! 😀 Let's spread the love fo our favourite charities today ❤️ and celebrate them by commenting and tagging them in the comments below.
.
Like the notions of volunteerism and philanthropy, charity provides real social bonding and contributes to the creation of inclusive and more resilient societies.
.
Charity can alleviate the worst effects of humanitarian crises, supplement public services in health care, education, housing and child protection. It assists the advancement of culture, science, sports, and the protection of cultural and natural heritage. It also promotes the rights of the marginalized and underprivileged and spreads the message of humanity in conflict situations.
.
To celebrate this special day every year, the work of different charities all over the word is publicised and celebrated, and people are encouraged to donate money and time, to carry out charitable works like volunteering, and also to educate people and raise awareness about the many charitable issues worldwide.
