StreetSmart is a unique bridge between the community and small, grassroots agencies that assist people experiencing homelessness. We support critical services and emergency aid as well as projects that promote social inclusion, empowerment and sustainable change for people who are homeless. When money is raised from the public through our fundraising events, 100 per cent of donations are distributed in the form of grants.

Still nowhere to go

Only 1 in 7 will find a bed in the homeless service system.
