Ways to Support Us
Partner with Yalari
Yalari is built on partnerships: partnerships with our students, their families and communities; partnerships with our schools; and, alongside everything we do, partnerships with our sponsors and supporters.
When young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students are given access to quality education and surrounded by people who believe in them, they achieve extraordinary things. That’s been Yalari’s story for 20 years.
Donate to Yalari
Donate today and partner with Yalari in its bold vision to become one of Australia’s great enduring educational and leadership foundations.
Partnership opportunities
Fund a student’s journey from Year 7 through to graduation. Your partnership ensures a student has a place in one of Australia’s leading schools from Year 7 to graduation.
Contributions to the Yalari Foundation are invested to grow over time, funding scholarships in perpetuity. Instead of being spent once, your gift grows over time to fund scholarships for generations to come. A contribution made today is a promise of opportunity for a student in 2075 and beyond.
It’s a community that makes it feel like home. Student camps spark early friendships, mentoring keeps students connected, alumni programs show what’s possible, and social enterprise experiences build real confidence. This funding supports the whole journey – the relationships and shared experiences that turn a school placement into a lasting success.
Workplace Giving​
Speak to your employer about making a regular pre-tax donation through your weekly, fortnightly or monthly pay. It doesn’t take much – in fact, you probably won’t even notice the difference to your pay – but those small, regular amounts add up to make a huge difference in helping us empower the next generation of Indigenous leaders.
Events
Yalari Gala Dinners & Cocktail Function
Each year, Yalari hosts a number of gala dinners in capital cities across Australia. These special events celebrate the achievements of our students and alumni and the shared dedication of all those who are providing life-changing opportunities for Indigenous children around Australia.

Yalari Foundation
The Yalari Foundation is home to the Mary Boydell Endowment Fund. Contributions to the Foundation don’t fund today’s scholarships. They build the permanent base that ensures Yalari can support students in 20, 50, 100 years’ time. Every dollar invested here grows, and the returns fund scholarships in perpetuity.
