Story

Dear friends and family,

On 5 September I am going to sleep in my car as part of the "live like her challenge" to help raise much needed funds and awareness for homeless women.

I have been inspired to sign up by my boss Laurie.  Laurie sits on the Board of Mangrove Housing and returns to the office after Board meetings sharing stories of women the charity has recently helped.  It is scary to think how easily this could be me or someone I love.  Domestic violence, children gambling away their savings, elder abuse, scams, job losses and poor health all common themes to their stories.

The “Live Like Her Challenge” is the major fundraiser for Mangrove Housing and any donation will go towards supporting the 40,000 Queensland women over the age of 55 who are homeless.

All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you will get a receipt automatically via email.
Thank you for your kind support!

    The Forgotten Women

    Mangrove Housing is the founder of The Forgotten Women Project, an initiative committed to providing homes to homeless women over 55 years of age - the fastest growing homeless population in Australia today.There are more than 40,000 Queensland women over the age of 55 who are doing it tough - suffering financial hardship driven by rising costs, lack of employment, limited superannuation and a lack of affordable housing options. Across the Greater Brisbane area there are over 600 homeless women over 55 .Alarmingly this figure is predicted to more than double by 2036.     The Forgotten Women's mission is to provide fit-for-purpose housing for homeless women over 55 with individually tailored support. Everyone deserves to live with dignity and age securely in place.
