As a key supporter of the property industry led A Home for All Foundation, REA Group is doubling donations made to the Foundation’s inaugural campaign, A Night Without Home, this Thursday and Friday.
World Homelessness Day is observed around the globe on 10 October every year.
The day provides a platform to raise awareness about people experiencing homelessness, while also celebrating those working to combat the issue.
From 9am on World Homelessness Day this Thursday until midnight on Friday REA will double donations made to the campaign, up to a total of $50,000.
REA Group Chief Customer Officer, Kul Singh, said the business’ support of the Foundation ensures every dollar raised goes directly to the cause and the offer of a matched donation is the perfect time to support the campaign.
“A Home for All Foundation is industry-led with homelessness and property sector leaders guiding the direction and distribution of funds raised. In recent weeks the Foundation announced that all funds raised throughout FY26 will be directed towards supporting people experiencing homelessness due to domestic and family violence,” Kul said.
“For one in 10 Australians, one unexpected setback could result in them losing their home, and domestic and family violence is an increasingly significant homelessness risk factor. Homelessness is a growing problem and the funds raised through A Night Without Home have the potential to make a real impact.
“The Foundation aims to raise $1 million, with the campaign throughout October driving us towards that target. With the industry rallying together this World Homelessness Day, we will continue to make great progress towards reaching that goal.”
A Home for All Foundation launched earlier this month to galvanise the industry’s support of those impacted by homelessness.
A Night Without Home asks individuals or teams to spend one night in the shoes of someone facing homelessness, with a range of challenges to choose from.
Participation could be a single donation, spending a night without the comforts of home and fundraising for the cause, or committing to supporting the Foundation year-round.
