WE
ARE
DONE.
Women sleeping in cars. Couch-surfing. Staying in unsafe situations because leaving means homelessness. Reaching retirement with less than their male counterparts - because the system was never designed to work for them. We are done waiting for that system to fix itself.

WE ARE DONE
Watching women we love without a roof over their heads
Watching a financial system built without women in mind.
Watching women stay in unsafe situations because they can't afford to leave.
Watching women reach retirement with less - and being told that's just how it is.
Waiting for permission to build what needs to be built.

2030
Our deadline to end homelessness
Our mothers. Our grandmothers. The women who sacrificed and built and held everything together - they are the wisdom keepers of our society. And we are done watching them be discarded as though their contribution meant nothing.
HERE'S WHAT WE ARE DOING INSTEAD
Women 4 Homes is creating its first co-living home for older women. It's the first step in something bigger: women putting our own capital to work to solve housing insecurity, on our own terms, at scale.
And the women are already here. Over 20 of them have come together as co-owners, backing this with their own money, because they're done waiting for someone else to fix it.
Here's what we're building. A co-living home for six older women. Six bedrooms, each with its own en suite and kitchenette, plus shared communal space. Beautiful, affordable, dignified. A home that eases the loneliness that comes too often with age.
Right now we're about to go shopping for the land. We're documenting every step, so the whole country can see what we already know. That older women most at risk of homelessness deserve beautiful, affordable homes. And that it's a sound investment with strong returns too.
This is what we're doing and we would love you to be a part of this. Whether you would like to support through sharing with your networks, bringing your skills, your time or your money, there is a place for you here.
