About The Challenge
Why 122km?
Right now, there are 122,000 Australians experiencing homelessness. That is 1 in 210 people.
This March, we're challenging you to walk 122km in solidarity for the 122,000 Aussies doing it tough.
Go the distance and Walk The Walk through the month of March to achieve your fitness goals and support people experiencing homelessness in our community.
Don't just talk the talk... Walk the walk and you can provide people doing it tough with a hot shower, clean laundry, and the opportunity for genuine, non-judgemental conversation.

Meet Curtis
For our friends, the power of a conversation instils a sense of dignity and belonging, a universal language at which we can all understand. Just as Curtis from Newtown explains "conversations are just so important, you can't beat a good conversation".
Because of the environment our dedicated volunteers create on each Orange Sky shift, people like Curtis can feel at home, and be welcomed into a place where they can forget about the other stuff for a while.
