I'm walking for the 122,000 Australians experiencing homelessness

I know from experience that homeless is a hard, hard way to survive.  Services like Orange Sky connect people, give them access to the dignity of clean clothes, and provide invaluable informal referrals.  They also provide a point of access where homelessness solutions can be sought ... and found.  I am setlled back into a comfortable life with secure housing (and a washing machine!), but I will never forget how pivotal services like Orange Sky were to me in being able to survive, navigate, and eventually exit homelessness.   So, this March, I will be taking part in Walk the Walk and going the distance for the 122,000 people doing it tough in our community.

I'm walking to raise funds for Orange Sky's vital work providing connection through clean laundry, warm showers, and genuine conversation.

Please support my walk to positively connect communities and support people who need it the most.

Together, we can show Aussies experiencing homelessness they're not alone.
