Support Families in Crisis

Help us fund motel stays for Brisbane families in crisis — and advocate for long-term housing solutions.

Sponsor a night of shelter

Every night, families across Brisbane are forced into motels — not by choice, but because there’s nowhere else to go. Micah Projects is supporting 250+ families, including 450 children, in crisis accommodation right now. 

Help fund a temporary roof for local families who don’t have a home.

$230 gives a night of shelter

We need your help

It takes a community — as part of ours, please help families without a home tonight. 

Street homelessness is visible, but most families experiencing homelessness are hidden — living in cars, couch surfing, or staying in motels they can’t afford. 

We stand with community that values justice, equity and believes everyone has a right to a home.  

Thank you to everyone who has helped!

In 2025, we called for $23,000 to fund 100 nights of accommodation and you helped us raise more than $50,000.

As we continue to see more families in need in 2026, we ask you to keep contributing what you can towards crisis accommodation for families.

Sharing the facts

Real change starts with real conversations, and we need you as a community advocate.

Brisbane is facing a growing homelessness crisis, worsened by a lack of affordable housing and an overwhelmed social housing system. 

People are being priced out of rentals and left without options. Families, children, and vulnerable individuals are paying the price.

Homelessness is a justice issue — everyone deserves a safe place to live.
