The inaugural St Andrew’s Day Dinner and Ceilidh, hosted by The Caledonian Society at The Fullerton Hotel Sydney, spotlighted the urgent need for housing and support for women and children escaping homelessness, domestic and family violence, and housing insecurity.
As the charity partner for the event, Women’s Housing Company will direct funds raised through the evening’s auction and raffle to programs that help women rebuild their lives and provide safe housing and practical support to regain confidence and reconnect with community.
