Benefits of Donating To Help The Homeless

You Choose the Amount
You choose the amount that you want to donate to help someone else in need. Your donation helps us assist people sleeping on the streets.

You can change the amount you donate at any time depending on your situation. This gives you a greater level of control over your ability to help.

Donations are Tax Deductible
You can claim your donations at tax time, so you’re cutting down your taxable income while helping someone in need.

You’re Helping Someone in Need
49,200 people are sleeping rough on Australian streets this year and are subjected to the harsh Australian weather. While there are homeless shelters, they are usually full and sometimes more dangerous then sleeping on the streets.

Your donation will help someone sleep safer on the streets each night and help give their dignity back. This not only keeps them safer but can help save their life.

Don’t use technology

If you want to donate over the phone please give us a call on 1300 AUS HELP or you can also mail your donation.
