Project Summary

We need to acquire a home for these pregnant women, babies and young children. There is nothing in this area and unfortunately there are many women in this situation due to DV or some other situation.
We get calls from individuals all around Australia and homeless agencies, doctors, hospitals etc. The old abortion clinic at 127 wharf st is up for sale for 2.5 million which would be great converted into rooms for these women.

Project Outcomes

To get some of these women into a safe place, help pass on skills to those who need them, and save many babies being taken by Child Protection, or women just aborting because they have no hope and see no other option.
