That StreetSmart time of year is nearly here: 9 November – 24 December. There are over 230 top restaurants where you can dine, simply add a little bit to your bill and these many micro donations add up to a big impact for many homeless people.

“That’s great news! Thanks so much for all your help, as a small housing service that is for the majority unfunded it makes such a difference to the support we can deliver when groups such as StreetSmart are behind us.” Tim Strange, Team Leader, Fusion Mornington Peninsula
