Help us help our Yolngu families

Support for Essential Tools and Supplies

Hello!

We are reaching out today to request your support for a modest GoFundMe campaign aimed at assisting our family visit to Mäpuru Homelands Community, North-East Arnhem Land. 

This is the first time we have been able to visit since Covid and we are keen to arrive with some extra critical supplies as a show of support from our community. 

All money raised will go directly to purchasing items that support the men’s and women’s groups of the Mäpuru Homelands Community.  

Our Yolngu families live in a very remote area of Arnhem Land and as such face numerous challenges due to their geographical isolation.  

Often when we visit we are flooded with requests from the community for items from Darwin they can’t access or afford.

So we can meet these requests our goal is to raise $2,000 to provide the community with essential tools and supplies: including axes, tarps, digging sticks, first aid items and extra basic food items.

These items and tools will not only enhance the daily lives of our Yolngu families but also support them to share their traditional cultural practices with our visiting group.

Our Yolngu family members will use the tools we bring to make spear throwers, harvest weaving fibres & dyes to make baskets, gather bush foods & bush medicine and collect traditional shelter materials. 

We welcome donations of any size!

Even a small $10 donation will make a difference. 

❤️

Your donation will directly support the Yolngu people to live with power and dignity on their ancestral homelands.

We deeply appreciate any level of contribution to this campaign and welcome you to share this request with your friends and family.

Every dollar counts and will bring us one step closer to our goal of $2,000.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support. You can keep up to date with our trip which is happening over the next few weeks via our social media channels. 

In Connection,
