Mission Statement
Cape York Partnership is a non-profit Indigenous organisation empowering the people of Cape York to choose a life they have reason to value. Our partnership consists of 10+ entities working on areas of policy, empowerment, education, employment, health, language and culture. We co-design all our initiatives with the people of Cape York so they can lead the changes they need for their communities to prosper.
About This Cause
Join us in breaking the cycle of intergenerational disadvantage in Cape York. You won’t just be making a donation. Your support will empower Indigenous Australians in Cape York and beyond to create positive change in their communities. Every donation, large or small, can create a ripple of change that will span generations. WHY IT MATTERS Since colonisation, the people of Cape York have endured discrimination and displacement as well as a social and welfare policy approach that has often failed Indigenous Australians. Our region has unacceptably high unemployment, a spiralling health crisis, a lack of educational opportunities, damaging welfare dependency and ancestral languages on the brink of disappearing. We want to ensure that Indigenous rights and responsibilities exist in balance. If individuals and communities are empowered to take responsibility for their lives, opportunities will open up and self-reliance will flourish. WHAT WE ARE DOING We partner with governments, corporates, philanthropists and – most importantly – the people of Cape York to create a hand up, not a hand out. From policy design to real-world implementation, we have built successful businesses, employment initiatives, financial coaching services, a language centre, health clinic, fresh food delivery service, respected schools and much more – all from the ground up. These have had a real, measurable impact on the ground for the individuals, families and communities of Cape York as they strive for lives of value, freedom and prosperity. By shifting the focus to Indigenous-led initiatives, our people have become the agents of change. But there is still much to be done
