Solutions to homelessness exist, and cross-sector partnerships are essential to bringing them to life.
By combining our collective knowledge, resources, and reach, we can drive measurable change, strengthen our community and demonstrate that ending homelessness is possible.
We'll work together to design a collaboration that aligns with your objectives - whether you're a business seeking to meet your sustainable development goals, a social enterprise wanting to scale your impact, or a non-profit looking to combine efforts.

Annual Toy Drive
Launch Housing runs an annual toy drive to bring joy to the over 500 children and young people we support who are at risk of or have experienced homelessness.
Not only do the toys make Christmas extra special for the kids who receive them, but these donations relieve the financial pressure that is often felt by families over the festive season.
