How to Contribute

Our Mission

We are committed to serving the impoverished communities of
multi-cultural nationalities & residents
of our current region of service.

We hope to be of valued assistance in the service of helping disadvantaged communities through a western placed culture that has in part distanced us from the roots of our own culture, leading to the trauma of a shortened life expectancy, heightened health risks, & impoverished life.

We are here to be a point of contact & established sharing in traditional
culture to help return us to
the roots of past good health we urgently require.
Our cultural heritage
awareness is increasingly
diminishing, been swamped
by modern western
cultural practices.

our Healing Centre

Facing the growth
of the community displaced
we need to look to our
own future of growth to
accommodate the demand.

We have long term experience to
know where available resources
can be best placed within
the community.

Our indigenous healing centre
faces the prospect of moving
beyond the growing issues
faced by the communities we
serve today & to help mitigate the
the offset of growing issues & neglect.

A past of trauma needs
it's healing to move beyond.

We have
established goals

Our long-standing position
in our community,
has evolved our aspirations of
reaching the demand for aid.
We have established
healing programs based on
our reflection of
community need.

We are seeking funding
for these programs.

Transition
& Bush Tucker
Centre

Healing Centre
Program Proposal

A Bundjulang
Healing Centre
will provide:

A holistic solution to the
disadvantaged & the issues confronting
indigenous + non-indigenous
within our region.

The centre will be a place where
workshops & training will
take place to help establish
life skills & mitigate
un-employment barriers
for workforce re-entry.
Visitors will be educated in
cultural nutrition with the use of
cultural bush food & resources.

Some included &
prioritised areas of
rehabilitation

• Grief & loss counselling,
• Drug & alcohol rehabilitation + diversion,
• Mental, sexual & physical abuse + morality support.
• Physical well-being.
• Restoring cultural ethics.
• Helping members of the stolen generation.

Bush Tucker
Program

Specialists are telling us
that as a people,
we need to be eating a
a whole lot more of
our own native foods.

Every other nationality that
has made Australia their home,
have brought their own
foods with them.
In every major city in
our country, finding other
nation's foods readily available
is easier than sourcing Australian
indigenous cultural food.
To buy bush tucker is
not so easy.

Our vision is to see
our communities serviced with
a bush tucker program to share
publicly & bring indigenous closer
to our dietary needs.

As part of our vision...
We need to establish the
obtaining of land large enough
to have both an emu &
a kangaroo farm.

Bush flora & fauna will be
grown & made available in conjunction
with dietary healing.

Your donation will help us.
With our research & formulated
strategies of returning indigenous
closer to their homegrown
nutritional dietary needs & education,
in which statistically we are losing our
longevity of life & connection
to the historical country without.

Any donation is
highly appreciated!
Your help brings us closer
to reaching our goals.

$500,000
Starting goal to
reach establishment.

Healing Centre

Will include but not limited to;

Paid & voluntary employment
of indigenous & disadvantaged,
