Nhuubala Yugal Education Centre has launched the ‘Empower’ campaign to raise funds for a mobile community classroom, to bring learning to the doorsteps of students in rural NSW.
Nhuubala Yugal Education Centre is a Moree-based community organisation empowering rural students to re-engage with their education. While our weekly food run and school pick-ups/drop offs reduce physical barriers, our education mentoring and tutoring service builds positive attitudes, confidence and self-esteem.
“Many kids here in Moree have a school attendance rate of below 50%, and we want to reach out to that group to inspire them with the benefits of learning,” said Stephen, the Education Services Manager at the Centre.
A portable classroom will further reduce barriers. Stephen says it will “help make learning fun by going to them on their own turf”.
The ‘Empower’ campaign has raised $4273. Our goal is to raise $15,000, which will help with the cost of buying the mobile vehicle. To support our campaign please follow us on Facebook and donate via www.nhuubalayugal.org/support-us
