Sydney Homeless Connect Highlights

Powered by https://bake.agency/ . Sydney Homeless Connect brings together people who are homeless and at risk of homelessness in Sydney with the services and support that they need. Our focus is ACTION and OUTCOMES on the day.

Our key event is the annual Sydney Homeless Connect day of support and service at Sydney's Town Hall on the first Tuesday of June each year.

Our mission is to connect.

We connect services who can help with people looking for support and guidance.

We connect donors who have something useful to give, with people who can benefit from access to high quality products; we connect the sick and vulnerable with medical and personal care they may not otherwise be able access. 

On the day itself, we connect around 2000 guests and volunteers with one another in an atmosphere of joy and mutual respect.

Sydney Homeless Connect is entirely volunteer run. We carry no stock and spend very little money. The whole event relies on donations of time, skills and stuff. 

At the end of the day any excess donations are passed on to organisations who work in the field so that everything given reaches the community it was intended for.
