Story

Our mission at Student Beans is empowering young people to thrive and are proud to work with AKT on their missions and cause.

These are the fabulous people that have committed to pounding the pavements to raise money for this great cause. Simon, Olivia, Rebecca, Ryan, Izzy, Rachel, Sophie, Alyce, Ollie, Jamie, Agathe, Ilona, Robbie, Jake, Robin, Oli, Ellie, Louisa, Shannon, Rich, Dan, Cam, Cameron, Julien, Katie, Rhiannon, Mitchell, Mihai and Amy ❤️

Lots of young people come out as LGBTQ+ to their families and are embraced and supported. But that’s not always the case. Coming out, or being outed as LGBTQ+ can lead to young people being made homeless. This is the reality for 77% of the young people akt supports. Sometimes families are unaccepting and abusive. The locks changed. Possessions destroyed. akt exists to support these young people and can offer safety and hope in an open and accepting environment. We help with housing and also to help them celebrate their identity.
