Educating & Empowering Indigenous children
It is our belief that education is the key to generational change and a brighter future for Indigenous children.
About
Yalari
Yalari is a not-for-profit organisation offering secondary education scholarships at leading Australian boarding schools for Indigenous children from regional, rural and remote communities.
We believe education is the key to generational change and a brighter future for Indigenous Australians and for our nation as a whole. We are deeply committed to the ongoing success of our national program of scholarships, student support and post-school opportunities.
Yalari respects our Elders, past and present, and acknowledges that our office is on Kombumerri country within the lands of the Yugambeh language group.

“Yalari means that I’ve been given an opportunity to make a change. If I wasn’t given this opportunity I’d be at my local high school, probably expelled. Yalari has given me a chance to do something with my life.” - Year 9 Yalari Scholar and Churchie Student, Moigida Loban.

What a great snap of Kayla Baker-Peris (Yalari alumna and 2018 Kambala graduate) who is working for Top End Aboriginal Bush Broadcasting Association. Kayla was broadcasting from a National NAIDOC Week event in Berrimah, NT.
It was great to welcome Yalari alumna, Jondy Martin and her team from Bond University to the office today. As part of their studies in public relations, the crew interviewed Waverley and Llew and will be compiling a social media video for us! Thanks guys!
