Who we are
Mission; To build partnerships which enable First Nations women to access the right support to use entrepreneurship as a vehicle for social change for their families and communities.
Vision; First Nations women in the Kimberley using entrepreneurship as a pathway to healing, leadership, economic empowerment and self determination.
What we do
Our approach is place-based and community-led. We focus on building the capacity of communities to activate local economies through enterprise. Our aim is to address a gap in early-stage support that builds foundational skills in entrepreneurship and small business.
We do this by facilitating enterprise-based projects that build capacity, strong partnerships and enabling ecosystems. Our model is healing centred, relationship based and responsive to the unique context of each community that we are invited to support.
