Your EOFY donation will help young people move from surviving to feeling safe and supported.

For many children and young people experiencing homelessness and disadvantage, “I’m fine” is the perfect way to keep difficult situations hidden.

Your tax-deductible donation can help provide the safety and stability young people need when things are far from okay.

From secure accommodation and safety planning to ongoing one‑on‑one support that builds trust and confidence, we walk alongside young people for as long as they need.

Please act now to look beyond the surface and respond to what young people are really facing – providing safety, stability and tailored support when their lives feel chaotic and uncertain.

Donate before 30 June to ensure young people are seen and supported when it matters most.

We collect your personal information to process your support, provide services, respond to your enquiries, improve our offerings, comply with legal obligations, and manage our relationship with you. Your information may be shared with relevant staff or service providers to help us do this.

From the outside, everything looked normal.

Alex* was only 17 when became homeless after fleeing family violence.

Suddenly he found himself trying to find somewhere safe to stay – moving between temporary options, turned away from accommodation and placed in unsafe environments.

Alex was a young person left to make adult decisions, alone in a system not designed for someone his age.

Through support from Youth Off The Streets, Alex was able to access safe accommodation, casework and ongoing guidance – creating space for stability and a way forward.

Your tax-deductible donation can helps turn survival into safety – and uncertainty into possibility for young people just like Alex.
