THE SOCIAL PURPOSE ORGANISATIONS

Housing All Australians is a business-led initiative dedicated to helping address Australia’s chronic shortage of low-income affordable housing. HAA believes in addressing both the short and long term impacts of homelessness.

Within an elephant community if a mother elephant loses her baby, the other elephants use their trunks to form a physical circle of support around her. Pink Elephants provides the latest resources, information and peer-support for anyone impacted by early pregnancy loss.

The Water Well Project provides free, interactive and inclusive health education sessions for Community groups from migrant, refugee and asylum seeker backgrounds. Sessions are facilitated by volunteer healthcare professionals.
