Partnerships.
Clontarf Foundation
FCF supports the Clontarf Foundation that provides support and engagement for young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men to assist them with completing Year 12 and find employment.
The Clontarf Foundation commenced in 2000 with a single academy located at the Clontarf Aboriginal College in Waterford, WA. Clontarf Foundation operates 136 academies within 149 schools in WA, NT, QLD, NSW, VIC and SA, supports more than 9,700 primarily boys and employs over 520 dedicated staff members. It partners with schools and communities to create ‘Clontarf academies’ which are embedded within the school grounds and education programmes using sport participation as a key driver.
Stars Foundation
FCF supports the Stars Foundation program with corporate industry support and engagement for young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women.
Stars Foundation was established in 2015 and provides a holistic program that supports Indigenous girls and young women to attend and remain engaged at school, complete Year 12 and move into full-time work or further study.
Robb College Foundation
FCF supports the Robb Leadership Co-operative Scholarship program that combines industry support and engagement for Robb students and is supported by “Career-Ready” student coaching, work-experience, personal support and development schemes.
Commenced in 2021, the Robb Foundation has been inviting corporate benefactor-employers to join “scholarship co-operative pool” to encourage joint-funding of the Robb College scholarships and enable the number and value of scholarships to be lifted. Participating employers also provide work-experience for the scholars and other Robb students. FCF was one of the two first partner employer-benefactors. The participation has enabled the doubling of the value and number of Robb Leader Scholarships for second year students in 2021.
We pay respect to the traditional custodians and first peoples of Australia, and acknowledge their continued connection to their country and culture.
