RACV teams up with not-for-profit educational organisation

The partnership aims to bring a new and exciting chapter for the students receiving Yalari’s support by helping the organisation deliver educational programs, student workshops, awards, professional development opportunities, and driving lessons and tests for year 12 students.

RACV employees can also avail of volunteering opportunities.

“Every Australian should have access to quality education – despite their location – and educational support from organisations like Yalari make a positive difference in young people’s lives,” said RACV managing director and CEO Neil Taylor. “We look forward to supporting Yalari to deliver quality education that will provide students with the tools they need for a brighter future for themselves and their communities.”

Yalari’s scholarship program for Indigenous people

Through Yalari and the Rosemary Bishop Indigenous Education Scholarship program, Indigenous students in Australia can access full-paid scholarships to attend some of the country’s leading boarding schools, including the following:

Geelong Grammar School in Victoria;
Scotch College in South Australia;
Kambala in New South Wales;
Methodist Ladies College in Western Australia; and
The Southport School in Queensland.

By offering regional and remote Indigenous Australians a pathway to access top-tier schools, Yalari helps Indigenous families make valuable contributions to the wider community and implement generational change for students and their families.

Yalari managing director Llew Mullins, said: “The partnership between RACV and Yalari is so exciting, and the generosity of in-kind and financial support is overwhelming.

“We had already experienced the genuine hospitality of RACV at the Royal Pines Resort in early January when our Senior School Leaders and Alumni were welcomed as they supported our new Yalari students at our Orientation Camp at The Southport School on the Gold Coast in Queensland.”
