Habitat for Humanity

Every year, members of our construction team assist with the Habitat for Humanity builds across Victoria. It always great to see the Nostra Homes team helping out! We are lucky to have such a motivated and enthusiastic team. We appreciate the time you give, year after year to help families achieve strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter.

Nostra Homes values this partnership incredibly strongly as it utilises the strengths within our team to really make a difference to many people doing it tough in our community.

Nostra Homes + MCFC

Nostra Homes, one of Australia’s leading independent home builders, has signed a new multi-year partnership deal with Melbourne City Football Club.

The partnership is a natural fit, with both Nostra Homes and Melbourne City having an aligned vision of promoting inclusivity and diversity in male-dominated industries – construction and sport.

Surprisingly, women only account for 2 per cent of workers in the Australian construction industry and although there are more women active in the Victorian labour market now in comparison to previous years, the industry still remains an area that has proven to be highly resistant to change.

By working with SheForce, the first female-led recruitment and labour-hire social enterprise in the construction industry, Nostra is hoping to spearhead this change and is proud to boast a workforce comprised of 36 per cent women.

Supporting Mental Heath Research.

Nostra was proud to partner with de Castella Run and MAPrc in 2016-17 to provide more funding so that more and better treatments can be found for a broad range of mental Illnesses.

MAPrc conduct world class research, clinical treatments, advocacy, education and training to make real improvements to the lives of people suffering from mental illnesses. The research they perform is what will make a real change to people lives and their families and communities.

As per tradition, each year the Nostra team took part in the DeCastella Run 2 Mend Minds run, which raised money for mental health research at MAPrc. Nostra is proud to continue to support the quest to treat mental health. We are committed to raising awareness for this important cause.

Raising funds for Northern Health.

The Northern Health Foundations aim is to create a healthier northern community of Melbourne. The foundation supports the Northern Health network by coordinating fundraising activities that will assist Northern Health and related services to continue to provide high quality, innovative health care services for patients and the local community.

Nostra Homes in conjunction with the Northern Health Foundation built a 3 bedroom home, the Canterbury design from our conventional range at the Aurora Estate in Epping. With great assistance and generosity from a number of our contractors and suppliers we built a high quality home that was auctioned.

The result was fantastic and better than what was anticipated by the foundation with the property selling for $450,000. All proceeds from the sale of the home were donated to the Northern Health Foundation and the money raised will help fit out the new Northern Centre for Health Education and Research. The centre will educate and train over 700 medical and allied health clinicians at any one time.

Nostra Homes is proud of this result and we look forward to continuing our association with the Northern Health Foundation for many years to come.

Community Partnerships.

A proud supporter.

Nostra Homes is proud to be a supporting partner of the following local community groups;

The Rupertswood Football and Netball Club in Sunbury

Caroline Springs Lakers Football Club

We wish these teams well throughout their season.

UDIA Mental Health and Wellbeing Partnership

Nostra was proud to join forces with Villawood Properties to raise much needed awareness around the importance of mental health within the development industry at the first UDIA Mental Health and Wellbeing Lunch in November 2019.

Jeff Kennett (founder of Beyond Blue) was the special guest speaker on the day and all funds raised were donated to MAPrc in their quest to better understand and treat mental illness.

Nostra and Villawood are proud partners in this cause and we look forward to working with the UDIA and the wider industry on this very important issue in society for many more years to come.

Woodlea Soccer Academy

We are so proud to sponsor the Woodlea Soccer Academy where children have the opportunity to develop their soccer skills and most importantly have fun along the way!

We were touched to receive this feedback:

"Thank you for investing in the WOODLEA Community, particularly the children. As you can imagine it has been a tough year for them. The Woodlea Soccer Academy has been one of their few "escapes" ...so it means a lot. We would not have been able to do this without the partnership of NOSTRA. So, THANK YOU."

The Nostra Community

At Nostra Homes, we are very serious about our commitment to the communities that we help build.
