Watch the emotional moment Literacy for Life Foundation graduate, Clarrie, reads a letter he received in the mail. Clarrie took part in the community-led Aboriginal adult literacy Campaign in Brewarrina, which was the subject of the documentary In My Own Words, which can be viewed on our website.
This clip is drawn from the full film, which premiered at the Sydney Film Festival and and also screened on SBS and NITV.
Lifting adult literacy creates a ripple effect, leading to improvements in health, employment and childhood education.
Please consider making a donation to support more students like Clarrie in First Nations communities around the country.
Literacy for Life Foundation is an Aboriginal not-for-profit operating since 2013. Results undergo regular independent evaluation, carried out by organisations including the University of New South Wales and the University of New England.
