Indigenous Australians

Indigenous culture should be celebrated, acknowledged, and respected. By supporting Aboriginal-focused organisations, you’re giving back to the land on which we live.

Aboriginal Literacy Foundation

The Aboriginal Literacy Foundation seeks to transform the lives of Indigenous children by focusing on literacy and numeracy education. Working in collaboration with local communities and partners, ALF develops literacy skills with Indigenous children so that they can succeed in school and beyond.

ALF are currently seeking funding to send books and library equipment to be sent to 46 remote Indigenous Western Australian schools.

Kanyirninpa Jukurrpa

Kanyirninpa Jukurrpa (KJ) is a Martu organisation established in 2005 to support Martu to build strong, sustainable communities. Martu are very traditional Aboriginal people from the Western Deserts area in WA.

They are currently seeking funding for The Kanyirninpa Wangka Nantirrpa project, which will be delivered to ensure that important linguistic, cultural and ecological knowledge about Martu land, society and values remain alive and passed down to future generations.

Noongar Mia Mia

Noongar Mia Mia (NMM) helps Aboriginal people living on Noongar country by providing a range of public and social housing options for eligible applicants, creating pathways from homelessness to home ownership.

Operating via a unique, evidence-based and Elder-endorsed cultural model of supportive housing, taking a Noongar Housing First approach to housing, property management and individualised cultural tenancy support to help tenants to manage their tenancies, and to thrive in their homes, NMM is building the right foundations for people to thrive and forging solid pathways to a secure housing future.
