Learning about Indigenous culture and heritage is essential for every young Australian. When our students' eyes are opened to the 65,000-year-old history and ancestral connections of Australia's traditional owners, their ability to respect people with different backgrounds is expanded, their understanding of Australian history is strengthened, and our country's potential to advance reconciliation is enlarged significantly.
Grow Hope is committed to expanding access to cultural education for schools requiring support. We know and understand that not every school in Victoria has the resources to connect their students with cultural learning experiences, which is why our Foundation can help with funding.
In partnership with Wanyara, our Classrooms of Culture Fund exists to support schools, youth centres, and other educational institutions who require funding support to host a Wanyara incursion. No student should miss out on the opportunity to learn about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture. You can contribute to the Fund by supporting the Grow Hope Dinner on June 3.
