Walk With Us – Support Strong Beginnings for Aboriginal Mums and Bubs
At Coolamon Community, we believe that every Aboriginal baby deserves the best start in life – and that begins with supporting their mums through culturally safe, trusted care.
We're a First Nations-led charity walking alongside Aboriginal Health Services to strengthen support at the very beginning of life.
When you volunteer with us, you become part of a community grounded in care, connection, and action.

📦 Support Logistics: Assist with sorting, stocktaking, and getting supplies where they need to go.
💻 Skilled Volunteering: Got professional skills in admin, marketing, IT or something else? We’d love to hear from you.
