12 Buckets - Prevention of Youth Homelessness
12 Buckets (https://12buckets.org/) is an organisation that supports the social and emotional well-being of children who are experiencing disadvantage and hardship. These are the children who are most at risk of homelessness. Their mentoring program matches volunteer mentors with children who need extra support.
The volunteer mentor meets with the child for 1 hour / week during the school terms in a Primary school in the northern metropolitan suburbs. The program is about building a relationship that can go a long way for a child that may lack emotional support from an adult in their life.
Rotary Clubs provide mentors and funding to help 12 Buckets support these children.
