Message from Ian

Fountain for youth is a non-profit charitable organisation empowering children through education and improving their health and well being.

“There is not ever a turning point in one’s life where it is any more important than another to give to those who are less fortunate than yourself. At Fountain for youth we have always endeavored to deliver the best possible outcomes for our brothers and sisters who need a helping hand to survive the constant current working against them.

The work that my charity is undertaking is amongst the proudest accomplishments in my life and though my work is incomplete, I have made a life-time commitment to fulfill the outcomes that we all dream of today. It is not an easy path that we chose to take, but it is the right path. We listen to and learn from our partners and the Indigenous people we work closely with and are reminded that we are on track. We will continue to work side by side to shape the future we want for all our children”.

Thank you to Australian Unity Foundation for your generosity and passion in supporting Indigenous learning and being a part of our journey.
