Sacred Heart Community Manager Margaret and resident representative Graham have changed many people's lives through their support and advocacy for people experiencing homelessness.

Working with the Mission for over 20 years, Op Shop Area Coordinator Martin Healey has been integral to the growth of the Sacred Heart Mission op shops.

Just as the sun brightens the garden beds at our Rooming House Plus Program, volunteer gardener Greg brightens the days of our residents.

Op shop volunteer Paul lives and breathes all things Fitzroy. He is especially passionate about assisting transgender people in our Brunswick Street store.

Baking has always been a part of Winn's life so when she baked a birthday cake for our resident Graham, it was her way of making him feel special on his birthday.

“I’ve survived because Sacred Heart Mission hasn’t given up on me,” Steven says. After spending much of his adult life sleeping rough he found a new home at Sacred Heart Community.

Program Coordinator Michelle explains how our Journey to Social Inclusion program works with people for three years to settle into a home.

“We are pleased to support the lasting and inter-generational changes Sacred Heart Mission is making to better our society, which is a way of living out our faith and our values.”
