Designed with – and specifically for – young people, ReachOut offers one-to-one peer support and moderated online communities, to tips, stories and resources – allowing young people to engage in the ways they want to, when they want to.

“ReachOut was there for me when no one else was, I was a teenager in a small town and the only thing that gave me an escape from my everyday life was the internet. And coming across the ReachOut website one night when I most needed something gave me a new hope, that I wasn’t alone and they honestly saved me.”

By actively involving the community in program development, Red Dust integrates indigenous knowledge, languages, and perspectives, resulting in a more engaging and effective learning experience for generations of students.

“Red Dust programs are now reaching more than 1,800 young people from 9 remote communities each year. Together with your support, our Healthy Living Program is having a positive impact on the social, physical and mental health of young people in remote communities.”
– Scott Stirling, Red Dust CEO

Beacon Foundation brings real world relevance to education, inspiring young people to think about careers and to experience the workplace, long before leaving school. Beacon believes socio-economic background or geography should not determine the education or career opportunities you have in life.

“Today’s program was great and very useful for my future. And one of the things I learned today is that your career pathway is not always straight forward. Take all opportunities you get in life and don’t stay too focused on one thing.”
