Ahead of Run Melbourne, our CEO Judith Atkinson reflects on the incredible impact of Concern Australia’s STEPS Homelessness Service.
At Concern Australia, partnering with young people to create positive opportunities and hopeful futures is at the centre of all we do. We value young people’s talents, hopes and resilience, and work alongside them as they identify their goals and navigate challenges.
Are you ready to lace up your running shoes and make a difference in the lives of young people and families experiencing homelessness? It's that time of the year again – Run Melbourne is just around the corner.
As we draw nearer to Christmas, on behalf of myself and all of my colleagues here at Concern Australia, I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to our cherished supporters and partners, for the support you have given us this year.
This Christmas, you have the power to spark transformative change in the lives of young people facing hardship and complex challenges. At Concern Australia, our mission is to work in partnership with young people and children, creating opportunities for them to enjoy full and meaningful lives.

As we approach the end of the 2020-21 financial year, invest in the next 50 years of providing hope and care to vulnerable young people such as Kacey and secure the benefits of a tax deductible donation.
