March has officially bid us farewell, leaving us amid 2024’s hustle and bustle but still riding the waves of Easter indulgences and sweet treats. Or maybe that’s just us at Mobilise…
Our direct giving programs hit yet another significant milestone last month, a recurring theme as they continue to gain momentum.
We officially raised the bat in March and welcomed our 50th participant into our direct giving programs. An inspiring accomplishment: 50 lives have been changed since these programs launched in November. We are so excited by that figure as we continue our path to the ambitious target of Project 10,000 by 2030.
Mobilise Matched, our flagship program, reached its halfway mark in March, signalling a pivotal moment as our participants received their initial grant payments after completing three months in the program.
Meanwhile, anticipation mounts as we approach the imminent launch of our newest program, Mobilise Pay, to debut alongside our fantastic charity partner, Catherine House.
Over the next month or two, you can expect to hear a couple (one in particular) of big announcements from us. We’re very excited about this, and it’ll also provide an excellent opportunity for us as a community to contribute to ending homelessness.
Finally, I wanted to give a big shoutout to all our Outreach Coordinators; they are the backbone of all we do. They facilitate conversations, challenge stereotypes, and passionately provide a platform for people to make a difference nationally.
Each passing month reinvigorates our passion due to the conversations we’re having with our partners, the friends we’re helping, and supporters in the space. Homelessness does not have to be a fact of life that we accept, and it’s fantastic to see so many like-minded organisations working towards this mission.
