Red Dust Role Models

 

Description

Red Dust Role Models is a non-profit health promotion charity and deductible gift recipient that seeks to improve the health and wellbeing of disadvantaged youth in remote communities around Australia.

Each year, Red Dust Role Models conduct around 10 tours to these remote communities and deliver programs in the areas of lifestyle education, mentorship and music. Red Dust utilises positive role models from the fields of sport, music, art, health and business to deliver programs which encourage healthy lifestyle decisions and promotes education as a path to personal development, employment and readiness for community leadership.

Red Dust is driven by a commitment to decrease the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians in terms of health, education and opportunities to fulfil human potential. Red Dust Role Models draws upon experience and knowledge gained from over 20 years of working in remote indigenous communities and the strong relationships that have resulted.
