Over the past 1.5 years, as I navigated challenging immigration hurdles, The SHIFT Project stood beside me with genuine encouragement and care. 🧡Although I wasn't a participant in their program, I witnessed firsthand the profound impact they have on women's lives.

The SHIFT Project is an independent charity based in Byron Bay, NSW, dedicated to supporting women transitioning from homelessness to independence. They offer a comprehensive and holistic program that includes :

The SHIFT Project does not receive government funding for their program, ✊ allowing them to maintain advocacy with integrity, and a flexible and responsive approach tailored to each woman's unique journey. 😍 They rely entirely on donations from the community.

🧡 Your contribution, big or small, goes directly to creating real, lasting change!

🧾 Did you know you can decide where your tax is going? 💸If you make a donation to a registered charity, it’s tax-deductible — meaning you can subtract that amount from what you owe!

This month, every dollar you donate to The Shift Project will be matched up to $40,000 thanks to a generous philanthropist. That means when you donate, your kindness goes twice as far in helping women rebuild their lives.

📌 Donations over $2 are tax-deductible.
