💦#DidYourkNow that regular handwashing with soap can reduce the likelihood of COVID-19 infection by 36%. 💦Today is #GlobalHandWashingDay and the theme is #HandHygieneForAll. #Handwashing is key in the fight against COVID-19. Handwashing with soap destroys the outer membrane of the virus and thereby inactivates it. Through our WASH projects in partnership with Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade we work towards #SustainableDevelopmentGoal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation. Access to clean water and sanitation are integral to our partner families having safe, healthy, and adequate housing. #SDG6 #WASH #ANCP

“Everything I owned was destroyed. The fire left the cows and the grass in the valley but my cottage, farm equipment, motorbikes and sheds were all gone. All my life in ashes.” After losing his home to the fires earlier this year, we're providing Bob with a temporary home so he can rebuild his forever home, as part of our Build Back bushfire recovery housing program in Victoria.

We provide a hand-up, not a hand-out. 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.

At Habitat for Humanity Australia, we believe a stable, secure home creates the foundation for change. A safe home gives people the opportunity to be healthier, happier and more secure, and for children to be better nourished and better educated. We believe building a decent home provides much more than bricks and mortar, it provides real hope for the future.

Thank you to all our generous attendees for joinin

Thank you to all our generous attendees for joining our live crowdfunding event last night and supporting our cause. We were blown away by your support, and together you raised an outstanding total of $78,811 in support of these three very deserving projects – an incredible demonstration of the power of collective giving.

A huge thank you to Selina, Tom and Ben for their passionate, inspiring and emotional pitches, and for the wonderful work they do every day which helps rebuild lives.

We’d like to say a special thank you once again to Benevolence Financial Group , the Nepalese Government and our anonymous funder for their generous matched funding. And, special thanks to our advocates Israel, Sam and Karen, and of course The Funding Network Australia , for all your support!
