Woman Property Intiatives
We create new beginnings for women and children at risk of homelessness by providing permanent and affordable homes, access to support networks and ongoing advocacy.
Can you help us open more doors for women experiencing housing crisis
On any given night, there are 54,000 Australian women who are homeless. Chances are, someone you know is amongst them.
Together we can open the doors to homes that will change the future for low income women and their families. WPI currently owns 125 secure and affordable homes and manages more than 150 homes for other organisations. Collectively our homes accommodate more than 450 people.
On our 25th anniversary we set a goal of funding 25 new homes by 2025 and we’re thrilled to have achieved it. We have now set ourselves a stretch goal of raising an additional $1 million by 30 June to stretch the target to 30 new homes. The of this is that 30 women led households will escape housing crisis.
Women like Carly, who escaped family violence with her four children. There WPI home has been a place to heal and recover from trauma. Her children have been able to invite friends over for the first time and make connections in their community.
Please donate now to provide a foundation for a happier and healthier lives for families like Carly’s.
