Daggy Jumper Day at your workplace

Daggy Jumper Day, held during Homelessness Week each August, invites workplaces to come together in warmth, creativity, and community action to support young people facing homelessness.

By wearing daggy jumpers and fundraising, your workplace can help create a future where every young person has a safe place to call home and the chance to thrive.

By taking part, your workplace will:

  • build awareness and understanding of youth homelessness
  • bring your team together in a meaningful way
  • help fund critical support that allows young people to move towards stability.

Whether it’s a team jumper day, a shared morning tea, or a friendly fundraising challenge, your workplace can make a real impact.
