Caretakers Cottage is an Australian non-profit, government-run non-profit organization based in Sydney that helps children and young people facing homelessness.  Caretakers Cottage is supported by the New South Wales Department of Communities and Justice to provide services for young people across the South-Eastern Sydney region.  Services include short-term, emergency shelter, independent living options, case support and early intervention for youth at risk of homelessness.  

 The initial formation of this organization began in 1972 with the establishment of a youth center.  The refuge began to host young people from 1975, and Caretakers Cottage was established in 1977 by the Paddington Woollahra Youth Service (PWYS), [1] making it one of the first youth refuges in New  South Wales.  The organization has helped thousands of young people across Sydney, including many from Sydney's Eastern Suburbs, and about a third of the young people it has helped are Aboriginal

### 1972: Klọb
The roots of Caretakers Cottage begin in 1972 when Laurie Matthews and family founded a center for teenagers called "Klubb."  Just $40 supports the center every week, in partnership with Holdsworth Community Centre, helping to support youth in the eastern suburbs

. In 1975, the Matthews family began welcoming young people informally at the Oxford Street Uniting Church in Paddington, where Laurie Matthews' father, Reverend Rex Matthews, served as minister.  [1] [2] [3] The Matthews family lived in a house owned by the parish and the original asylum was in the caretaker's house in the grounds, hence the current name of the asylum.  The shelter began as a place for youth from the country to stay while they found work and a place to live.  Laurie Matthews first ran the shelter out of her own pocket, and two years later it became one of the first youth shelters in New South Wales to receive funding from the Department of Family and Community Services.  After receiving government funding, the shelter moved to the original Matthews family home.  [4] In 1977, the Trustees began receiving funding from the New South Wales Department of Family Community Services (FaCS).  [5] In these early years, however, most of the funding for Caretakers Cottage came from the parish's Village Centre.  The shelter is run by Laurie and his wife Sara, who work odd jobs that often don't pay.  [6] The organization was incorporated that year under the name Paddington Woollahra Youth Service (PWYS).  By the 1980s, the refuge had changed from a caretaker's house to a retirement home and the Reverend Rex Matthews allowed the building to become a recreational facility, approved by the local council, allowing the elderly to live there in  'themselves, and refuge

### Gaa na Surry Hills
After 15 years of the organization being based in Paddington, Caretakers Cottage moved to Surry Hills.  [1] The move was an eviction notice from the Uniting Church who owns the Caretakers Cottage youth shelter.  The New South Wales Department of Housing provided funding for the organization to purchase new homes, however, the organization was forced to leave Paddington due to a lack of large family homes for sale in the area.
