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.

Openness is to be genuine, to be receptive to new ideas and to try new things or ways of doing things. To create transparent and honest relationships.
