English Literacy Program for Women
Ubuntu Australia conducts 'English Read and Write Program for women from multicultural communities' to improve the literacy of women who have inadequate literacy for everyday life demands.
This foundation level program aims to improve the English reading and writing skills of women from multicultural communities.
Project Period Dignity
Ubuntu Australia, through its Project ‘Period Dignity’ provides free period products to female high school students in WA.
We believe that female sanitary products should be provided free to high school students. These products are a necessity, not a luxury, and it should be accessible to all students. Doing so would reduce stigma, improve health and wellbeing and bring down student absences.
Project ‘Period Dignity’ currently supports 600 female students from two high schools in the City of Gosnells.
Material Aid Support
At Ubuntu Australia, we believe no one should face hardship alone. Our Material Aid Support Program provides essential items such as food hampers, clothing, household goods, and emergency supplies to individuals and families experiencing financial or personal challenges. By responding with compassion and dignity, we ensure that community members not only receive immediate relief but also feel supported on their journey toward stability and resilience.
Multilingual Book Swap
Celebrating culture, language, and community, the Multilingual Book Swap Program by Ubuntu Australia creates a vibrant space where stories travel beyond borders. This initiative encourages the sharing of books in diverse languages, fostering literacy, inclusion, and cross-cultural connection. By bringing together readers of all ages and backgrounds, the program strengthens community bonds and ensures that the joy of reading is accessible to everyone, in every language.
ICT Device Support Program
Ubuntu Australia’s ICT Device Support Program bridges the digital divide by providing free laptops, computers, and other devices to schools and individuals in need. By equipping students and families with the right tools, the program empowers learning, connection, and opportunity. Together, we’re building a more inclusive, tech-enabled future for all.
