African Australian Network Alliance Limited
Shelter for all
Homelessness and Housing
The African Australian Network Alliance Limited manages community housing across Australia and can assist you in finding a home. Our organization can help you locate suitable shelters. We also provide material aid and food supplies to individuals with low incomes or housing problems. Our aim helps people across Australia to find housing and support services that will bring them back to everyday life. Without people’s goodwill, our goals are not achievable.
Our commitment
Shelter and Security: Helping Homeless People
With your help, the African Australian Network Alliance Limited maximises opportunities to identify people who are at risk early, particularly young people, support people to maintain their tenancies and ensure that people do not exit government services into homelessness.
There are no internationally agreed-upon definitions of homelessness, making it difficult to compare levels of homelessness across countries. A majority of people experiencing homelessness long-term in Australia are living in the large cities of Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth; with your support, we can reduce such risk of homelessness by helping homeless people.
Our Approach
We believe that by addressing the root causes and providing immediate community support services for African Australians, we can make a lasting impact.
Emergency Accommodation
For those in dire need, we facilitates access to emergency shelters and temporary housing options.
Long-term Housing Assistance
Collaborating with housing agencies, we help individuals and families find sustainable housing solutions that they can call 'home'.
Financial Literacy and Planning
By providing workshops and resources on financial management, we empower individuals to navigate rental agreements, mortgages, and more.
