In my years of volunteering and as member of Karen Youth Activity Group Inc I have come across young people that don’t have the financial means or support from family to be able to participate in what they love doing such as sports.
This funding is for the KYAG to provide assistance to individuals or groups with sporting activities that they are engaged in with the right gear and equipment. The referrals will be coming from Wyndham local public schools and youth agencies such as Youth Support & Advocacy Service, Wyndham Youth Services and Whitelion.

This project is an early intervention to help young people engage in sports and prevent them from becoming disengaged and disconnected. It will give young people to have purpose and to be socially connected through their participation in local sports activities. It will also help fund local youth agencies such as YSAS and Wyndham Youth Services with their sport activities and or events and help provide them with volunteers as a way of whole community approach. This fund will help keep Wyndham young people active and connected.

Hi May,
Your youth would be most welcome to learn to play bowls as an activity at Werribee Bowls Club in Chirnside Park. Bowls is a target game that is suitable for all ages, abilities and cultures. Check out our website or Twitter. Happy to chat anytime. Equipment and coaching provided free of charge. Most welcome at our positive friendly facility. Rhonda

I like this project. It is a great concept to get young people involved and to minimise the negative impacts of disengagement. Hope you get the funding.
