Give the gift of performing arts education
Thanks to the generosity of many new and long-time donors, the unwavering support of our philanthropic and corporate partners and the Australian Girls Choir community, g-oz has been able to achieve a lot in 17 years!
However, we need your help to keep growing and to ensure that the delivery of our Community Programs, Travel Programs and Reverse Travel Programs remain stable, consistent and reliable within the remote Australian communities of Halls Creek, Lockhart River, Kowanyama and Bidyadanga. These communities too often experience well-meaning initiatives offering their support without considered long-term programme planning and reliable funding sources, with many programs leaving just as quickly as they arrived.
Since the delivery of our pilot programs in each of these four communities g-oz has been warmly welcomed back each year by each community to continue the delivery of our programs. We are committed to the longevity of our initiatives and the sustained, reliable support that we are able to provide the communities that we collaborate with.
We value your donation, no matter how big or small, as it ensures we can continue to make an enduring, positive impact within the communities that we work with and a meaningful difference in the lives of girls and young women living in the remote Australia.
Donations over $2 are tax-deductible and there are a number of ways that you can donate.
‘We aim to spark imagination in these young women about what they might be when they grow up. In one week they are exposed to an incredible range of people and experiences that we hope will inspire them to remain engaged at school and strive to be successful. These opportunities aren’t available in their home towns and we know the lasting benefits of eye-opening experiences in this impressionable age group.’
– Nicole Muir AM, g-oz Chair
