About this raffle
We are raising funds for The Kate Mullin Association. The association was established in 2011 to continue the valuable work of the late Kate Mullin. Kate was a passionate and visionary literacy consultant who made significant and far-reaching contributions to Indigenous literacy in Western Australia. There remains, however, an enormous gap in literacy standards between non-Indigenous and Indigenous children in Australia. The gap increases for children from remote Indigenous communities.The purpose of this raffle is to support the Kate Mullin Association scholarship fund. This program assists remote Indigenous Education Workers to study to become teachers, and then return to work in schools in their communities. This strengthens local capacity in relation to teaching literacy, brings in teachers who will be there for the longer term, adds much-needed bilingual and bicultural abilities, and provides strong role models for Aboriginal youth. This also helps address the fundamental problem Aboriginal schools have in finding and keeping teachers.
