Hope in Action

Lifehouse Care exists to bring practical support, hope, and lasting change to communities locally and globally.

OUR STORY

How We Got Here

Formerly known as Rise Assist, LifeHouse Care has been serving vulnerable children and families for over a decade.

With programs in Australia and Cambodia, our mission is to bring hope and practical support to young people, helping them overcome the limitations of their circumstances.

In Australia, we support youth through development programs, school essentials, and food relief. In Cambodia, we’ve seen children thrive through access to education and life-changing care, both through our own initiatives and in partnership with local organisations.

As we look to the future, LifeHouse Care continues to grow, with plans to expand into Europe and beyond. Our vision is simple: to help young people face tomorrow with hope, no matter their past or present.

Everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and included.
