To tell someone about this

So my dd has a school friend that she is very close to. This friend has about 11 siblings in total, some are half siblings I’m not sure about the ins and outs. The friend has 5 siblings she lives with, 3/4 of them in the same school. When my dd goes over to their house, she’s mentioned it’s only a two bedroom and the kids (mixed genders) have to share one room, while some share with their parents. It’s very unfortunate. The parents go on holiday quite often but cannot move them out of this overcrowded house. I know it’s none of my business but it’s just so sad for the kids. Everytime my dd visits their house she gets ill and has described seeing mould on some of the walls. Her friend is constantly ill and suffers from hayfever- during winter. Seems like a reaction to the mould. I have since invited her friend back to ours instead. This seems like textbook neglect to me. And the mom has expressed to me she would have more! I want to tell the teachers who can perhaps have a talk with the parents. Surely the mould is not good for the family. Is it my place to raise concerns?

Quietly raising a concern with the school would be completely reasonable here.
