House The Homeless, Charity ABN 56693943374

There is over a ten thousand people on the category 1 list registered for public housing, which means a wait time of many years to be housed.  Need homes can fill in this gap to help the people waiting the longest, by moving into our Crisis care, social housing, new Need Homes, till better accommodation can be had.    Such as moving in with a new partner, finding a job and being able to afford private rentals, saving for a deposit,  move in with a family member,   or their turn finally comes up for public housing.

Many of these Australians, cannot obtain or keep normal private rental, and end up sleeping on the street, in cars, under bridges, in commercial buildings or on their doorsteps, in parklands, and in carparks.  This is due to the high private rents, their social condition such as, no prior rental history, no family support, their age, unable to work due to sickness, or a car accident injury waiting years for an outcome from the CTP insurance company,  aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, Victim of Domestic violence, Veterans, Defense Force,  over 55's,  out of work or no savings due to a Bankruptcy, Divorce or Loss of job or dealing with addiction. 

We identify and help the longest-term homeless tenants, who have the worst living conditions, thus helping the most in need.  We work with case managers, homeless services and organizations to help us identify people needing our homes.   

Checks are also done with case manager support services to get a more information of their history and health condition.    Need Homes helps house these people into our new Need Homes,  as quickly as we can.  We hope to raise enough money to supply a Need Home, within a few weeks of registering.  After a rent free period of up to 12 months,  ( were only the normal Government rental assistance is charged so no out of pocket rent ), or if working rents will be about $100 per week.     Social support services offered to get them back on their feet including food, furniture, cleaning, health, finding access to all the social support available, Funding is donated and sponsored, by caring private, community, charity and Government organizations and individuals.     

NEED HOME BENEFITS 

1.  It's a safety net, set up to be easier for Homeless, to get back on their feet, till an affordable private rental or public housing becomes available,  and become  a better employment prospect with a fixed address, and the rent-free period means they can save more money to improve the possibility of raising a deposit for a home of their own, if new incentives are available to them. 

2. Less strain on the police, cleaning, security, welfare and health system.   

3.  A safety net for anyone experiencing such a setback in their life, of homelessness.  

4. Less Australians roaming the streets at night and begging for money. 

5. With their own private Need Home, rent free ( if on welfare ) which includes their own bathroom,  kitchen, air conditioning, and in most case off street carpark,  and access to support services, like cleaning and food, with a  fenced off yard for a small pet and garden,  it is as close to a comfortable home as possible.   

6.  Your sponsorship or membership or donation,  helps us continue our service.  

7.  Our Need homes, are mostly sourced from local suppliers,  and if necessary  overseas suppliers,   fully fitted out with kitchen and bathroom,  and set up in multi sites of 10 - 30 homes, within 3 months.  This makes for a quick roll out,  and reduces the strain on the building construction industry and tradesman.  Speed of roll out is important because some become more ill, as they are left out in the cold. 

8.   If our tenants eventually move out to better accommodation, and we are left with an oversupply of Need Homes at any one stage in the future, these could be stockpiled and used for any future natural disasters, such as floods or bushfires or mass migration or refugees fleeing overseas wars and tragedy.  

9. This is your opportunity to give back to a country that has helped us prosper,  help the less fortunate, and join a quest to implement a new solution to fix the homeless problem, and rental crisis in Australia.

10. They say giving, gives more pleasure than receiving.  Join our challenge of eliminating homelessness and feel the appreciation of many less fortunate than yourself.
