Stand Tall - Annual Initiative
In May this year, we had the pleasure of supporting 31 students and teachers from Cobar High School to attend the Stand Tall event, the largest youth event of its kind in Australia.
Stand Tall invites student cohorts from a range of schools (generally years 8 to 11) to gather at the ICC Sydney Theatre to hear messages of hope from speakers who have either faced major adversities, or who set themselves incredible goals and have gone on to great accomplishments.
The Foundation also hosted the Cobar cohort for a lunch and tour around Sydney Showground, holding engaging discussions with them about Foundation scholarship opportunities, different career pathways in agriculture, and work connection opportunities at the Sydney Royal Easter Show.
The students were also so thankful for the opportunity to visit the Opera House, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and even enjoy the Vivid Festival. Coming to Sydney was a first for many of them.
Our community giving is resourced by fundraising and our donor contributions are the backbone of our giving. We invite you to be involved and to help support rural and regional scholars and communities.
