Hoodies to help: Help us keep young people warm this winter
Hoodies to help: Help us keep young people warm this winter

Did you know that on any given night, over 9,500 young people are sleeping rough or without stable housing in Queensland? Many of these young people live out of small backpacks, choosing to keep mobile by jumping trains or couch surfing.

To help support these vulnerable young people, Y Brisbane is launching a new pilot project called Hoodies to Help.

To support, beginning today and running until the end of May, for every Hoodie purchased, Y Gear will donate an additional hoodie to the Hoodies to Help project.*

In addition, you can also purchase a hoodie to donate to the program, visit the link below to shop:

Donate a Hoodie

At the end of May all donations will be shipped to a central location in Brisbane to be distributed out to community centres.

YMCA Community Centres provide a safe and welcoming space for people to connect, have fun and receive support. Find out more:https://www.ymcabrisbane.org/services/community-centres

*Y Gear will donate up to the value of $1000 in Hoodies to support the program.
