We have chosen Humanitix as our ticketing platform as they give back to amazing causes. For Melbourne WebFest 2019
we have selected Indigenous Scholarships as our charitable cause.
Indigenous students face many unique challenges that have made education gaps difficult to close. Those in regional, rural and remote communities in particular have to contend with geographic barriers, with only 24% of Indigenous students having access to a school that offers study to Year 12. This project provides scholarships to close the gap for indigenous students.
