Over 100,000 Australian’s are classified as homeless – 20,000 of those are sleeping rough in Queensland alone. Perhaps even more frightening still – is that 40% are under the age of 25.
Rosies was established on the Gold Coast in 1987 to provide friendship and essentials to those most in need. They now operate in all the major centres in Queensland assisting people who are abandoned, marginalised, or socially isolated within our communities.
While Rosies promotes awareness and support services, their main focus is to provide friendship and unconditional acceptance during difficult times.
Over 95% of the important work Rosies does is funded through kind donations from the local community.
There are many ways to show your support and help Rosies with their vital community projects, they include:
• Donating outreach supplies (like milk, biscuits, cups and blankets)
• Creating and giving hygiene packs
• Financial donations to assist with the cost of uniforms, vehicles and other expenses
• Volunteering
