This is Julie. She’s nearly 70 years old, kind beyond words, and right now she’s been sleeping in her car.

Julie spent 23 years in a domestic violence relationship. For a long time, she endured more than anyone ever should. Recently, she found the courage to leave not because it was easy, but because she realised something powerful:

“I’m not a bad human. I deserve to be happy.”

Those words say everything about who Julie is.

Leaving meant safety… but it also meant losing stability. With nowhere else to go, Julie has been doing her best to survive while sleeping out of her car, all while trying to organise permanent housing.

She is actively working with services and doing everything she can to get back on her feet, she just needs support to bridge the gap.

Julie’s daughter reached out and shared her mum’s story, and when I met Julie, I knew we had to come together as a community to help her start again.

Julie isn’t asking for a handout she’s asking for a chance.

If you’re able to donate, share, or leave a message of support, it would mean the world. Let’s show Julie how supportive and powerful this community can be.

The funds raised will go towards- finding a stable place for Julie to live, food, expenses and anything else necessary for her living.

Together, we can change her life. Thank you for being here.
