Reading out of Poverty (AU, 84221811239) Browse events
YTD Raised: $0.00Reading Out of Poverty is a non-profit organisation that supports children and families in the pre-literacy and early learning stage of development. Established in Melbourne, with the support of volunteers and community partners we provide early literacy programs that aim to promote a love for and habit of reading. Children need to engage in reading activities from birth so that they develop the literacy skills they need to succeed at school. Children who do not have this critical foundation will quickly fall behind and lose confidence in the classroom. For many of these children, they may never catch up which directly impacts life outcomes. We focus on children who are at high risk of developing poor literacy and numeracy skills and low-level educational outcomes from an early age including refugee, migrant and indigenous children. Our organisation establishes unique partnerships with parents and carers, pre-schools, community hubs and centres, health and welfare centres, migrant groups, government housing estates and Indigenous Cooperatives to develop essential early literacy and language skills in children from disadvantaged backgrounds where illiteracy is common. We are committed to seeing cultural change in attitudes towards reading in early childhood. Reading out of Poverty is focused on developing the early literacy skills of Melbourne’s most disadvantaged children including those from low socioeconomic backgrounds, new migrant families, refugee and Indigenous backgrounds. Our primary purpose is to provide a strong foundation for children to learn to read so that they can succeed in education, reach their full potential and contribute to their community and the world.

Christina Noble Children's Foundation (CNCF) (AU, 96624705876) Browse events
YTD Raised: $0.00The Christina Noble Children's Foundation is an International Partnership of people dedicated to serving children in need of emergency and long-term medical care, nutritional rehabilitation, educational and vocational opportunities,and the protection of children at risk of exploitation The Foundation seeks to maximize the potential of each child. This is accomplished within the context of the family and the community whenever possible and always with love and respect for the dignity of each child as an individual. Christina Noble is the founder and driving force behind the Foundation. Christina's passion for children's rights is rooted in her own horrendous upbringing. Christina knows what it's like to be young, homeless and desperate. Born in Ireland into the slums of Dublin on 23 December 1944, she was to embark on a childhood of pain and betrayal. She and three siblings were raised by their mother while their father, who was once a bare knuckled fighter, frittered away what little money the family had on drinking in pubs. The death of her mother, when Christina was 10, brought about the separation of the children, as they were all sent to different orphanages. Christina spent four desperate years in the west of Ireland in an Institute being led to believe that her brothers and sisters were dead. Her escape brought her to Phoenix Park in Dublin where she slept in a hole in the ground that she herself dug. It was during this vulnerable time that Christina was subjected to a gang rape and became pregnant. A baby boy was born but given up for adoption against her will. At the age of 18 Christina ran away to England to be with her brother. This is where she met and married her husband and had three children, Helenita, Nicolas and Androula. Unfortunately the cycle of abuse continued as her husband proved himself to be a violent and faithless man. She was regularly beaten, suffered a miscarriage and was later forced to undertake shock treatment for a mental breakdown and depression. It was during this particularly low ebb in her life around 1971 that she had a dream about Vietnam. This was a dream which she would one day triumphantly fulfil, albeit 20 years later. In 1989, with the goal to assist children in need, Christina arrived in Vietnam. Against all odds, Christina set up the Foundation in Ho Chi Minh City where the number of A more detailed account of Christina's life can be read in her autobiography 'Bridge Across My Sorrows' published in 1994, and her follow-up called 'Mama Tina'.

YTD Raised: $0.00
(AU, 50116495405) Melaleuca Refugee Centre is a community–controlled, not–for–profit association operating out of Darwin. The association was first established in 1996 to cater for refugees and asylum seekers wanting to settle in the Northern Territory. In 2002 it expanded and now provides an environment for resettlement and healing of refugee survivors of torture and trauma, their families and community through confidential, high-quality and holistic services. Every year Melaleuca, in conjunction with the Refugee Council of Australia organises a World Refugee Day Festival for World Refugee Week. This year the event will be held on the 14th of June. The event aims to highlight the importance of refugee issues and celebrate the resilience, talents and achievements of people with refugee background in the Northern Territory. World Refugee Day is a chance to draw attention to refugee issues, to promote respect towards the refugee population, and most of all to celebrate the many amazing contributions that the refugee community make to Australian society. World Refugee Day showcases and celebrates some of these contributions, through incredible performances, inspiring workshops, crafts, food and a multicultural soccer competition. The event is a key activity in building relationships between people form refugee background and the broader community and promoting respect and understanding. Each year the event relies on external funds to make the day a success. These funds go toward paying performers, running workshops, coordinating food and stalls, equipment, promotion and marketing. Through GoFundraise we hope to raise $15,000. We would be grateful for any contribution large or small to go toward making this important event a success. All donations made over $2 are tax deductable. Follow these links for more information about Melaleuca and the Refugee Council of Australia: Many thanks for your support
