Chameleon Housing’s bid for a second share house for homeless young people is a step closer, after the community raised $110,000 for the project during the Ausbuild Housing for Happiness Gala on Friday night.
More than 280 people attended the event at Eatons Hill Hotel’s grand ballroom.
Developer Ausbuild hosted the gala, which included an online auction and raffle and was supported by Moreton Bay Region Industry and Tourism (MBRIT).
Chameleon Housing is a not-for-profit specialist homeless service which has been helping young people aged 16-25 years, who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, for more than 30 years.
It provides safe and affordable accommodation on the Redcliffe peninsula and surrounding areas and the team works with young people to help them take control of their lives in a supported, strength-based environment.
Chameleon Housing has one share house for homeless young people at Kippa-Ring and desperately needs a second.
