Meet the Ganbina Generation

Since Ganbina’s inception in 1997, 2,135 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and young people have been supported to reach their full potential.

One Generation Down. One to go.

Many of our participants are the first in their families to finish high school, pursue further education, and start careers of their choice.

This generation is uniquely equipped to forge a brighter future for themselves and future generations. Confident, educated, and skilled—this is the Ganbina Generation. We are proud to share some of their stories.
