Stars supports Indigenous girls and young women to attend school, complete Year 12 and move into full-time work or further study.
Our program is based on strong, trusting relationships. The Stars Room is a warm, welcoming environment – a place where our girls and young women feel safe, nurtured and inspired.
Our full-time Mentors provide a diverse range of activities to support our Stars to develop the self-esteem, confidence and life skills they need to successfully participate in school and transition into a positive and independent future.

“I have been in the field of philanthropy for 16 years. I have seen and supported many superb projects. I have never seen a better, more strategic, more cost-effective project than this one in Australia or the rest of the world.”
“Our Mentors have made an immense impact on our lives … I am very thankful to have gone through my final year at school with such amazing role models and peers. I will cherish the memories I have made this year, and the family I have found at Stars, for the rest of my life.”

“Put simply, I think what you do for the students is remarkable. You probably hear that a lot!”
