Together for the World: Lifely Joins Forces With Habitat for Humanity
Lifely is excited to announce its new partnership with Habitat for Humanity Australia as a part of its Together for the World initiative.
The newfound partnership will see Lifely donate 1% of their profits on a quarterly basis to Habitat for Humanity. This will support them and their mission to serve families across Australia, and the Asia Pacific who are in need of accessible and affordable housing that they can call home.
Habitat for Humanity — which originated in Georgia, USA — is one of the world’s largest not-for-profit housing providers for low-income families overseas. They also have several programs across Australia to support low-income families and vulnerable groups access safe shelter. Since 1976, they’ve helped more than 35 million people worldwide access safe housing, water, sanitation, hygiene and livelihood training to build better lives.
Within Australia, they currently operate in NSW, QLD, VIC, SA with home building programs running in the latter two states. To date, they’ve built more than 160 homes.
Anchored by the conviction that safe and decent home provides a path out of poverty, Habitat for Humanity has a vision to create a world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live. It’s a vision that Lifely also shares and is excited to contribute towards for the next twelve months.
Through financial support, volunteering or adding a voice to support affordable housing, everyone can help families build a better tomorrow, today. Through shelter, we empower. To learn more, donate or volunteer, visit Habitat for Humanity’s website or phone 1800 88 55 99.
