Volunteer opportunity: Reconnect Youth Program Weekly BBQ

Location: Sydney’s Inner West

Frequency: Held every Wednesday afternoon 1.30pm – 4pm (excluding school holidays)

Volunteer Roles: We are looking for a corporate team to commit to supporting this activity on a regular basis. We can accommodate support on a monthly or b-monthly basis.

Purpose: The Reconnect Youth program aims to engage with vulnerable young people, aged 12-18 years, who are homeless or at-risk of homelessness. This program reconnects them to their families, schools and communities.

Thank you for your willingness to roll up your sleeves and support these meaningful initiatives. Your involvement will have a positive impact on the lives of the children and young people we aim to serve.

WHAT WE SEE

We see beyond the sleepover in cars and understand the underlying issues.

After escaping family violence, a parent and their child have nowhere safe to stay and are
currently waiting for refuge accommodation.
