Keep The Fire Burning! Blak, Loud and Proud is the theme of National NAIDOC Week 2024 which runs from 7 – 14 July.
The official NAIDOC Week website is a great resource for finding out how you can help mark this important celebration.
One way to show your support and to celebrate NAIDOC is to make a one-off or monthly donation to Literacy for Life Foundation.
As an Aboriginal charity we are focussed on supporting local communities to lift literacy levels, through training local people to run adult literacy Campaigns.
These community-led Campaigns give people that missed out on learning to read and write a second chance at education.
Many of our students sign up so they can learn to read books to their children or grandchildren.
They want to be literacy leaders in their community, acting as role models for the next generation.
If you’d like to learn more about our work and show your support this NAIDOC Week here are some simple suggestions:
- Make a monthly or one-off donation
- Catch the beautiful feature documentary on our work, In My Own Words
- Sign up to receive regular updates about our Literacy Campaigns
- Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or LinkedIn
