About

Waalitj Foundation is an Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisation (ACCO) that empowers First Nations Australians through education, employment, and business development programs. Based in Western Australia, the foundation provides education support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, employment pathways for jobseekers, justice-focused training for pre and post-release offenders, and business development support through the Waalitj Hub. The organisation is led by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff and focuses on breaking down barriers to opportunity for First Nations peoples.

Giving Philosophy

The foundation values culturally-led solutions, practical pathways to economic participation, and leadership by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. It focuses on creating sustainable opportunities across education, employment, and business sectors rather than direct welfare provision.

Wealth Source:Corporate foundation with annual giving of $500,000, likely supported by corporate partnerships and philanthropic contributions aligned with reconciliation and Indigenous economic empowerment objectives.

Tips for Applicants

Organisations seeking support should align with Waalitj's core pillars of education, employment, or business development for First Nations peoples in Western Australia.
