Long ago the white man brought his ways to our lands
They brought their words and their ways from their lands, full of their pain and trauma
They made their structures and their ways grow on our lands
We should never forget that this was their ways and not ours
Let us all leave their ways and strengthen our own paths

Our Mob
Historically our communities were strong & well developed, resilient & self-determining.
Each had their own ceremonies, customs, language, & culture.
Our communities provided a sense of belonging & were a source of our identity.
Our Way
We understand that to create & maintain sustainable, positive change our people need to have full control over decisions made regarding our lives, communities and country to ensure we are able to meet our social, cultural and economic needs.
Our Wanjawurru (giving)
Our Foundation supports individuals & community self-determination by providing philanthropic funding that is collaborative and multi-faceted, has community context, high levels of support, and direct and flexible funding.
