StandbyU Foundation exists with one clear mission: to harness and embrace the power of human connections to build a better, safer world for people with stories of vulnerability in our communities.
Every day we work to bring friends and family closer together by fostering these connections.
We back
Families
Our families and friends aren't passive - they want to help. They're available 24/7, determined to support us.
We believe in
Communities
Our Connections exist within our social relationships - we believe in place-based approaches; we participate in our community and we mobilise communities as active relationships.
We value
Your Agency
We understand the impacts of abuse, violence and isolaction, but you are the expert in your own life. We support you to develop meaningful connections and response for peace of mind.
Our Wellness and Identity are foundationally linked to our Relationships. Particularly, those Transformative Relationships that change our lives for the better. Sparking Connections drives everything we do, because Connections Change Lives.
