    A huge thanks to the Elders (Joan Walsh, Raymond Little, Marilyn George) and Polly Dann, whove lent their knowledge in converting our Environmental Stewardship Educational Materials to Badimia Language and recently came together again to review the first draft booklets. We are also grateful to the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Communications and the Arts for making these language conversions possible! In our recent workshop, we combed through the materials for accuracy, and we had great fun having Karen Stead (ABC Foundations Business Partnerships Manager) test out the phonetic translations for accuracy. These projects are only possible with the insights and wisdom of the Elders involved. Were hopeful that these educational resources will play a vital role in promoting environmental stewardship through the captivating Badimia language. #ABCFoundation #Yulella #yulella #elders
    Fantastic news for Mungullah! Three families are now settled back into their beautifully renovated homes thanks to SHERP (Social Housing Economic Recovery Package. These renovations are making a real difference in peoples lives, and we want to thank Jorge Paulino for his incredible work supporting these families throughout the process. Its inspiring to see the community being revitalized! What positive impact do you think safe and secure housing has on a community? #ABCFoundation #PartnershipsForSuccess #departmentofcommunities #renovation #mungullahcommunity #CommunitySupport

    As we move quickly into 2024, we wanted to reflect on one of our most successful programs to date - Food for the Mob. The unique program not only enables local people in communities to be employed to cook and produce the food, the food they are preparing is then distributed to those that need it the most in the same community. The ingredients for the meals are funded through our other successful program – Containers for Change, which are recycling facilities collecting bottles and cans from the local community (which also employs local people and supports keeping the community rubbish free) We’re really proud of both programs which are brilliant examples of what the ABC Foundation is about – a circular economy of community taking care of country and themselves to support the future of their community physically and socially. The Food for the Mob program is run by some extraordinary women at several of our sites who make sure the meals are healthy, nutritious and there’s plenty to go around. To date the program has fed over 200,000 people in remote and regional Australia which include families, the elderly and kids who don’t have consistent access to food. We are really looking forward to maintaining and growing this program for years to come and sharing the genuine success we’re having in Indigenous communities across Australia.
