Recipient story
5 years couch-surfing, a mum and her three children finally have a safe home but are starting over with little stability.
Other hardship(s)
For the past five years, this mother and her three children have experienced ongoing housing instability, moving between couches and temporary arrangements without a place to call home. During this time, ages 13, 17, and 6 have grown up without the consistency and security that most families rely on.
Despite the challenges, this parent has remained focused on her children’s wellbeing, doing everything she can to keep them safe, supported, and connected to school and community. The impact of long‑term housing instability has been significant, creating stress and limiting their ability to settle and build routine.
The family has now achieved an important milestone by securing long‑term housing. While this brings enormous relief, they are starting again with very limited household resources after years of moving and loss.
Support at this crucial moment will help turn an empty house into a safe, stable home providing comfort, dignity, and a sense of belonging as this family starts again
