I'm learning to appreciate the comforts many of us take for granted
On any given night more than 116,000 Australians - including over 44,000 children and young people - don't have a safe place to call home. This statistic has risen almost 14% in the past 5 years, and in a wealthy nation like ours this is unacceptable.
And so this year I'm raising money for the homeless by being part of a group Sleepout (Isis District State High School Sleepout) to support Mission Australia and I'd love your help. $22 can buy a set of sheets so a child can be tucked snugly into bed and $299 can fit out a whole bedroom with basics to feel safe and secure. Your donation will help support those at risk or experiencing homelessness. Thank you in advance for your support!
