At BooksnBoots, we aim to deliver services that support good health, wellbeing, and the happiness of First Nations children across Australia. We strive to level inequalities in health and education through our programs: the Tiny Treasures project, one on one tutoring, and early intervention cultural programs.
Our vision is to Close the Gap, together with First Nations people and their community, as we strongly believe in Self Determination. As an organisation we are guided by foundational principles of Partnership, Collaboration, and Environmental Sustainability, and take a bottom-up, grassroots approach to address disadvantage.
We have also expanded the types of clients we now service with Books n Boots. In 2024, we sent books to juvenile Detention Centres and Family Violence Support Centres. We also reached the milestone of 50,000 books delivered to 80 First Nations communities. This includes the delivery of sports boots to thirty First Nations mobs along the Stuart Highway from Fringe communities, including Alice Springs, to Uluru.
We are extremely proud of all our Booksnboots volunteers who made this possible while we grow from strength to strength
