    Sienna didn't realise she was homeless; she only knew she had no safe place to sleep.

    "When I came to Frontyard, I wasn’t expecting much, just a place to sleep and perhaps some food. But the staff gave me so much more. They showed me a way out. For the first time, I think my life can be different and, maybe, I can be happy." - Sienna, age 16

    At MCM’s Frontyard Youth Services, we’re dedicated to giving hope to young people like Sienna. But we can't do it alone. Your support makes it possible for us to offer more than just a safe place to sleep—your generosity provides a warm meal, a listening ear, and the opportunity for lasting change.

    “Those nights in the car - I was terrified and felt completely lost. When MCM found us a place to stay, I could finally breathe again. It felt like our chance to start over.”

    Amber is a mother who would do anything to protect her five-year-old daughter, Maisie. Four months ago, she made the brave decision to flee her violent partner. After briefly staying with her parents, Amber was forced to leave again when her partner tracked her down.

    With nowhere else to go, Amber and Maisie moved between friend’s and family’s homes, never staying more than a night or two. Eventually, they ended up sleeping in their car—nights filled with fear and heartbreak.

    Desperate for Maisie’s safety and future, Amber turned to MCM. With MCM’s support, Amber and Maisie now have temporary housing and are working toward a permanent home.
