Our funds and who they support
Mental Health Support Fund
In keeping with our mission and organisational values, the team are committed to creating a Mental Health Support Fund, aimed at providing financial assistance to vulnerable individuals and families who could not otherwise access mental health supports. This MHS Fund has been a vision we’ve held for some time, and look forward to seeing it grow in coming months and years – reducing the cost barrier for some of those most in need.
Homelessness Everyday Needs Fund
This fund assists our Homelessness and Early Intervention team to better support young people who are in need of everyday items such as medication, haircuts, food staples, dental treatment, clothes and personal identification but do not have the financial means to be able to access them. Whilst Government funding and brokerage covers some things, unfortunately there is a shortfall where some things are just not able to be funded. This fund ensures that the young people who are already in crisis and are extremely vulnerable are able to access basic and often crucial things which most of us take for granted.
General Donations Fund
This fund is for the donor who doesn't quite know what they would like to support but wants to provide financial assistance to the agency. The great thing about 'general donations' is that those funds are used across all of the services for whatever is the greatest need at that time. It could be buying craft supplies for the children who are supported by our Casework Support Services team, tickets to the movies for the children who are staying in our Interim Care House, or warm jackets for the young people who are staying in our refuge accommodation. We use the funds whoever they are needed to best support our service users.
