The Power of Giving How Community Support Transforms Lives – Jaylee Cooper
Donor Support Our donor community is the heartbeat of everything we do. Thousands of generous individuals have stood with us — through one-off gifts, ongoing support via our Heart of Gold program, and lasting legacies through our Gift in Wills initiative. Every contribution is more than a donation; it is an act of hope and solidarity that keeps our doors open and our programs growing. Because of this unwavering generosity, women in crisis can find safety, dignity, and the chance to rebuild their lives. Together, we are not just funding services — we are changing futures. Corporate and Community Partnerships We are proud to have partnered with a growing number of corporate supporters who not only contribute financially, but also engage their teams in volunteering and awareness-raising activities. These partnerships have brought vital resources and visibility to our work, and we thank each organisation for their commitment to social impact.
We are deeply grateful for the diverse areas of support provided by our corporate community, including: • Structured giving partnerships • Corporate donations • Workplace fundraising and giving • In-kind support through donated goods and service delivery • Knowledge sharing and professional expertise Thank you for your steadfast commitment to improving the lives of women experiencing homelessness and for joining us in creating a future where every woman has a safe place to call home.

The 2024-25 financial year has been another remarkable period of generosity, community spirit, and shared commitment to supporting women experiencing homelessness. Catherine House is deeply grateful for the unwavering support received from individuals, businesses, fundraisers, community ambassadors, schools and the wider community, who all ensure we can provide our services. We simply could not open our doors without it.
Community Fundraising From morning teas to marathon runs, trivia nights to art auctions, our community fundraisers have been both creative and impactful. These grassroots efforts not only raised essential funds but also helped spread awareness of homelessness and the work of Catherine House across South Australia. On average, two fundraisers were held every weekend across South Australia supporting Catherine House!
