Celebrating 10 Years of Dignity
Dignity was founded in 2015 and over the past ten years, the organisation has grown from one guesthouse for women and children experiencing homelessness to multiple guest homes and housing residences across 25 locations, supporting and empowering up to 400 people experiencing homelessness each night.
Two weeks ago, we hosted out first-ever Gala Dinner to mark Dignity’s 10th Anniversary and raise much-needed funds to support even more people in the future. What a night it was! We are deeply grateful to the many individuals and businesses who contributed to making the evening such a success.
Thank you to our event sponsors Endeavour Energy, Winning Group/Appliances Online, Fantastic Furniture, HSL Group, 5 Star Builders, SDJA and Happy Hair Brush. We asked our event sponsors to share why they choose to support Dignity and people at risk of or experiencing homelessness.
Thank you to those who volunteered their time including emcee extraordinaire Sarah Macdonald, videographer Rob Leggo, Photographer Rob Lloyd, Dignity Dish volunteers and Brigidine College St Ives students. And to everyone who joined us on the night, and to those who joined in from home buying raffle tickets and bidding on the auction items, thank you for your generous support of people at risk of or experiencing homelessness.
Our 10th Anniversary video reflects on this journey—highlighting key moments, stories and the collective effort of our team, volunteers, partners and community who have all played a part in ending homelessness in Australia, one person at a time.
