YALARI

Yalari supports Indigenous children from regional, rural and remote communities throughout Australia in gaining access to a first-class secondary education via scholarships at some of the country’s leading boarding schools.

Established in 2005, Yalari now supports 180 children around Australia enrolled in 34 partnership schools. Yalari was founded by Indigenous educator Waverley Stanley and his wife Llew Mullins. Waverley’s own experience of attending boarding school at Toowoomba Grammar School over 20 years ago started him on the Yalari journey. With a target to raise over $20 million to support Indigenous students over the next ten years, Yalari draws its support from individual benefactors, companies, philanthropic foundations and government departments.

Yalari provides programmes which break the cycles of poverty, abuse or other misfortune by educating our children, with the belief that by educating a child you ultimately make the world a better place for all. Yalari has done wonders over it’s near 20 years of existence, Epic is proud to have been a supporter for much of that time.
