It takes a dedicated village to build a community, and we are incredibly grateful for the hard work, precision, and heart the Saumure Group brings to the 63 Halton Street project every single day.

Here is why their partnership means so much to this initiative:

𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩: The crew's attention to detail ensures these homes will be safe, beautiful, and durable for decades to come.

𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲-𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐃𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: They aren't just managing a construction site; they are actively building a brighter, more accessible future for 15 local families, individuals, and seniors.

𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞: Keeping a complex development moving forward efficiently is no small feat, and their steady progress keeps us on track to welcome residents home this Fall.

Floors are Going Down: Inside, the rooms are taking shape as our teams lay down the flooring, a massive step in turning a construction site into a living space.

With occupancy expected this Fall, we are officially in the home stretch! We have just $143,375 left to raise to fully fund this vital community project.

Every single detail counts, and every donation builds hope for local families, individuals, and seniors waiting for a safe place to land.

We are consistently blown away by the generosity, warmth, and spirit of this town. Building 15 new affordable homes at 63 Halton Street is a big undertaking, but we are reminded every single day that we aren't doing it alone.

Whether you’ve made a financial contribution, stepped up to volunteer as an Alongsider, or simply tuned in to hear us chat about the project on 88.1 myFM's "All About the House" and shared the mission with a friend. Your support is the true foundation of this build.

Every bit of awareness raised and every dollar donated brings us one step closer to opening doors for local families, individuals, and seniors who need a safe, permanent place to call home.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for showing up for your neighbours. Together, we are building something truly special.

When people move into a new home, having keys to the front door is only step one. The real transformation happens when they feel connected to the people around them.

That’s where our Alongsider Program comes in. You don't need a background in social work, special qualifications, or hours of free time. You just need a willingness to show up as a friendly human being.

𝐀𝐧 𝐀𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭:

Meet up for a quick coffee once a week to catch up.

Work together in community spaces and share gardening tips.

Help a neighbour figure out local community programs.

It’s simple, steady connection that helps break down social isolation and turns a brand-new apartment into a true home.

When we talk about the 15 units at 63 Halton Street, we aren’t just talking about construction milestones, square footage, or energy metrics. We are talking about stability, safety, and peace of mind.

For a parent, it means knowing their children have a permanent, quiet place to do their homework. For an individual with mobility needs, our ground-floor accessible units mean living with independence and dignity. For everyone moving in this fall, it means relief from the stress of housing insecurity.

𝐀 𝐬𝐚𝐟𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐩𝐚𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐞; health, education, and community connection. That is what our neighbours are helping us build every time they donate, share a post, or step up to volunteer.

Thank you for helping us build more than just a structure. You are helping us build a foundation for a better life.

True community is a quiet force, and over the past months, we have watched that force build more than just walls at 63 Halton Street.

We want to take a moment to say a profound and heartfelt thank you. Creating 15 safe, secure, and permanent affordable homes for local families would not be crossing the finish line without you.

Whether you made a donation to help bridge our funding gap, inquired about volunteering as an Alongsider, shared our posts, or offered words of encouragement, you are part of this achievement. Every act of support was a tangible act of empathy, proving that our neighbours are valued and supported.

Because of you, we are not just building houses; we are creating a foundation for belonging, health, and stability in Perth.

We are grateful to stand with a community that prioritizes housing security and dignity for everyone.
