Aboriginal Health and Literacy Programs

First Nations’ Partnership Programs
 
Rotary Clubs can make a positive contribution to “closing the gap.” They are encouraged to develop projects in conjunction with Aboriginal communities that will lead to long-term positive outcomes.
 
Successful programs in the past few years include:
  • “Books in Homes” at Moree East Public School
  • The Ophthalmic project for the Griffith Aboriginal Medical Service
  • Cabbage Tree Island community project (gym equipment and surf boards)
  • Indigenous First Language programs through the Australian Literacy & Numeracy Foundation
  • End Trachoma Now
  • Purple House
  • Australian Rotary Health Indigenous Scholarships
