An industry partnership will bring the property sector together to support Australians experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity, with a focus on raising funds, awareness and practical support.
LJ Hooker Foundation, the charity arm of the real estate network, has announced a partnership with the A Home for All Foundation.
The partnership will run through to the end of 2028, with advocacy and fundraising efforts spanning campaigns, volunteer initiatives, and corporate and franchisee activities.

In its first year, the foundation raised more than $1 million through its A Night Without Home campaign, which is set to return in October 2026.
The previous campaign funds were split among four charities that support people experiencing homelessness and domestic violence.

LJ Hooker Foundation director and Group CFO Simon Heathcote said the network had thrown its full support behind the charitable cause.
“We’re looking forward to engaging our offices and franchisees through a collective goal, using the scale of our network to help grow awareness and participation, and raise much-needed funds.”
