Kids Under Cover
Story
Hello!
Kids Under Cover supports vulnerable young people between the ages of 12 and 25 who are at risk of homelessness.
The solution is to:
• Build one or two bedroom studios (with bathrooms) in the backyards of homes to keep young people connected to family and a healthy home environment.
• Provide scholarships to ensure ongoing engagement with education.
Kids Under Cover believe shelter and education help young people stay connected to their family, to education and with their community. With this support, young people are able to build a brighter future.
We are making a difference and running to raise awareness and funds for the cause!
Please support our efforts by making a secure online donation and by posting a message of support.
Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to Kids Under Cover.
Thanks so much for your support!

Kids Under Cover
Being homeless can happen to anyone.
On any given night, there are more than 116,000 people experiencing homelessness in Australia and nearly half of these are under the age of 25.*
For more than 30 years, Kids Under Cover has been working to prevent youth homelessness.
We know that if young people are not properly supported when they first experience homelessness, they have a higher chance of becoming homeless in their adult lives. Around 40% of homeless adults were first homeless as young people.**
In our work, we focus on early identification and prevention of youth homelessness, creating a proactive rather than a reactive approach to this very complex issue. We do this by building homes and providing scholarships for homeless and at-risk young people.
