Good Shepherd Support Services is proud to support Jenny's Place, a Newcastle-based organisation helping women and children affected by domestic and family violence and homelessness
From past fundraising events to ongoing initiatives, we are committed to amplifying their work and creating an impact in our community
Since 1977, Jenny’s Place has been helping women and children find safety and support.
Their services include:
Their mission is to prevent domestic and family violence and promote healthy relationships, values that resonate deeply with our team at Good Shepherd.
At Good Shepherd Support Services, our work is deeply rooted in community, compassion, and purpose. Every initiative we create is driven by a simple belief: that when people come together, real change happens. In proud partnership with Jenny's Place, we have been committed to raising awareness, building connection, and supporting women and children experiencing domestic and family violence through meaningful, community-led events that turn empathy into action.
The Shining Together Gala Dinner was more than a gala dinner, it was a moment where community, story, and purpose came together in one room. Hosted to honor strength, resilience, and hope, the evening united colleagues, families, friends, community leaders, and supporters with a shared mission: to stand alongside women and children in need of safety and support. Through extraordinary generosity and collective compassion, the event raised $33,000, directly contributing to the life-changing work of Jenny’s Place. Every conversation, every donation, and every act of support on the night became part of something bigger, helping provide safety, refuge, and pathways forward for those escaping domestic and family violence.
Our Devil Wears Prada 2 themed movie night was a powerful night of community spirit, where people showed up not just for an event, but for a cause that matters deeply. With the support of local businesses, sponsors, and attendees, the event raised $4,000, directly supporting Jenny’s Place and their ongoing mission to provide crisis accommodation, advocacy, and essential care for women and children experiencing domestic and family violence.
Each initiative reminds us that change is not created alone. It is built through community, compassion, and the willingness to stand beside those who need it most.
