A Night Without Home is an awareness and fundraising event throughout October to help end homelessness in Australia.
Every dollar raised will accelerate the impact of organisations dedicated to driving innovative and sustainable solutions to ending homelessness in Australia, through the A Home for All Foundation.
Get involved, your way
Tonight, more than 122,000 Australians won’t have a safe, secure place to call home. 94% of them are hidden – couch surfing, sleeping in their car, or moving from one temporary accommodation to the next.
Choose your own challenge this October, and help rewrite this story.

If you’re couch surfing, make sure it’s with a friend or family member that you trust. If you’re spending the night in the office, check in – do you need wardens, security or additional insurance? If you’re sleeping outdoors, head to the backyard or a designated camping spot.
If you’re sleeping in the car, park in a safe, secured and private space. Sleeping outside isn’t legal in every state, so make sure to check in on your local laws before choosing a challenge.
