We Are Mobilise was created to journey alongside those experiencing homelessness and explore how to best make a tangible impact in the lives of those in need. Mobilise is committed to ‘connection for change’ – providing a genuine human connection, time, and companionship for people experiencing homelessness – with the view to creating transformational change.

A relationship between Mobilise and the Foundation was first established in 2023, after the NFP was selected by employee choice to receive funds from the PNI Group Step Challenge.

The Foundation and Spheria subsequently formed a partnership with Mobilise in FY25 in support of the Kickstarter Program. The Mobilise Kickstarter program provides direct rental assistance for eight weeks, plus bond payments, to help people at risk of homelessness to access or maintain a rental property. Providing access to appropriate and affordable housing – and in turn creating autonomy over one’s finances – can be a life-altering experience. And when financial assistance payments increase, people seeking help for financial stress decreases. The financial ‘breathing room’ that Kickstarter provides also allows participants to amass a small amount of savings, often for the first time, which provides an extra layer of financial security they wouldn’t otherwise have.
