About Project Australia
Project Australia is a non-profit organisation helping people launch community projects across 12 theme areas. We provide inspiration, resources, processes and advice to help people put their ideas into action.
We are a progressive social enterprise, free from political or religious influence, founded in 2006 by a young social innovator, Dr Donnie Maclurcan. Any profits we make go back into the services we deliver. We have grown thanks to unconditional donations, fundraising events, merchandise sales, revenue from our youth speakers’ bureau and the hard work of more than 200 volunteers since we began. Our budget for 2011-12 is $36,000.
Our team currently includes a one-day per week Executive Director, a one-day per week General Manager for our speakers’ bureau, ten volunteers and six committee members. We operate out of Sydney, but our team and work is national.
