Age Matters tackles homelessness, ageism and social isolation head on. Why? Because disadvantage doesn’t discriminate.
15,000 people over the age of 55 are homeless on any given night.
Long-term unemployment amongst mature-age workers is on the rise.
Men over the age of 85 are three times more likely to commit suicide.
We’re working to change this, and you can help. Support our work or donate online.
Every dollar you donate supports our work to empower older Australians live free from disadvantage.
