ABOUT US
Self Made Indigenous Corporation was established to support the interests of young Indigenous people living in remote, rural and metro Australia. We have identified that they are suffering from poverty, destitute, misfortune, helplessness and are socially isolated.
Self Made Indigenous Corporation will work across the diversity of educational needs, mentoring, support, collecting and distributing donations. We aim to grow our presence in more communities and make our engagement regular and impactful.
