It's certainly been a very eventful few months! Our recent Grow Hope Dinner was a sensational success. Speakers such as Sarai Roe and Michael Naawi shared inspiring stories about the significance of their culture to their own personal journeys and their passion and commitment towards reconciliation. Our utmost gratitude goes to all those who attended and supported the evening.
Yesterday marked the conclusion of this year's NAIDOC Week, with the theme 'For Our Elders'. Read more about our Exhibition of Contemporary Indigenous Art below. The celebration of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leadership, however, cannot be confined to a couple of weeks each year. Through our programs, Grow Hope continues to promote truth-telling, justice, and equity for First Nations Australians. We are strongly committed to the Voice being enshrined in the Constitution with the power to advise Parliament on laws that affect Indigenous peoples.
Many thanks to everyone whose support enables Grow Hope to create generational change, and particularly to our volunteers, staff and Directors for their tireless hard work in advancing our vision of a future where all Australians walk and grow together.
