REAL ESTATE AGENTS HELP HOMELESS
Help give dignity
Real Estate Agents give back to the community - helping people without a roof over their head.
Real Estate Agents help Aussies purchase homes - but they also know - many Aussies have no home.
Today, savvy Real Estate Agents donate a Backpack Bed or Fire Retardant Sleeping Bag with every house sale or appraisal.
Through our tax deductible gift cards, both Agents and Sellers will know they are making an impact to street sleeping homeless people.

"Backpack Bed for Homeless was a logical charity for me to support.
I quickly learned that Backpack Beds for Homeless is the most ethical, transparent and immediate charity who can change lives with the study proven gift of a Backpack Bed.
Agents and the community can provide dignity, comfort, warmth, shelter, safety and self-esteem to people without shelter."
Why it's needed
- 122,494 Australians are homeless today (ABS 2021).
- 45,800 Aussies will sleep on the streets this year (ABS 2021).
- In 2022-23 over 108,000 requests for accommodation from homeless people across Australia could not be met (AIHW 2023).
-
The average life expectancy of a street-sleeping homeless man in Australia is 45 - 47 years - compared to 48.86 in Somalia (Bethlehem House 2014).
Every Backpack Bed provides $3,319 in cost benefits to the community in the areas of health, justice and employment (source: 180 Degrees Consulting).
Backpack Bed for Homeless is a national charity - we partner with 1,000+ homeless agencies to distribute our study proven Backpack Beds and Fire Retardant Sleeping Bags to homeless people on our streets.
It's easy for Agents to help the Homeless
Many Real Estate Agents like to write a thank you message to their clients.
Our tax deductible gift cards:
- Help a homeless person.
- Receive a DL card to handwrite their message.
- Their client receives the card and knows a homeless person has been assisted.
