WOMINJEKA Come with Purpose.
Cabbe melemung’il narrin-ik Kellie. Hello, my name is Kellie. It’s been a busy few months for our Mob, from playing at the National Indigenous Tennis Carnival in Darwin and welcoming 50 participants to our Culture on Court event in Castlemaine, to our 2024 alumni graduating at the Melbourne Zoo! It’s certainly been a proud and emotional end to a fantastic year. We’ve now completed interviews for our 2025 Leadership Academy and are very much looking forward to walking alongside eight new young people from across Victoria. Uncle Les has been busy planning for next year’s Balit events, so keep an eye out for upcoming emails and make sure you get your families and young ones to come along. If you’re at the Australian Open in the new year, look out for 11 of our young people who have successfully gained positions in customer service and retail for the duration of the tournament. We have added two more cultural spaces at the Anglicare Victoria offices in Dandenong and Frankston. Our team will be visiting each site every four to six weeks, so feel free to drop in for a yarn – we’d love to see you! If you’d like to book a meeting you can contact us at by@anglicarevic.org.au. Thank you for your ongoing support of the Buldau Yioohgen program over 2024. We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a safe and happy new year.
