Organisation Summary

Helping Out Homies is a volunteer-led charity based in Ipswich, Queensland, committed to supporting individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness and socio-economic disadvantage.

Our goal is to provide direct, compassionate support to vulnerable people through food relief, essential supplies, and community connection.

We respond to the increasing demand for frontline support in our region by offering free food hampers, school snack packs, toiletry kits, pet food assistance, and direct outreach to rough sleepers, including camping gear and other vital items. We also run regular street feeds, offering hot meals and desserts to those in need.

Since launching in 2024, we have supported an average of 450 individuals and families per month. The demand for our services is increasing monthly as more and more individuals find themselves in need, and we are always happy to help.

Our organisation is best placed to do this work because we are locally based and community-driven. We understand the unique needs of our region and deliver fast, flexible support with compassion and understanding . Every donation and support we receive goes directly into helping those who need it most.

Our organisation is devoted to expanding our food delivery services, and providing consistent support to all those in need, regardless of their circumstances.

Helping Out Homies is committed to helping others, and providing the best support we can to create a positive change in people’s lives, and ensure no one is left behind.
