2022 Pitch

Funds Raised: $73,100

CEO and Founder Bronwyn, pitched for funding to deliver free online tutoring to children in need.

The Impact…

Through the funds raised ongoing tutoring was provided to 10 students throughout 2022 and into 2023 who's funding had been exhausted. This enabled them to continue with critical tutoring. The funding also enabled a further 4 new students to commence tutoring from the Out of Home sector. The total number of tutoring hours TFN / AMP provided will amount to 588 for the entire funding year (April - April) . Enrise also donated 20 computers to Koordak Community Centre in WA to be used for up to 10 student tutoring / homework assistance in 2023. They donated a further 8 computers to individual students including the 4 new students referenced above. By providing 588 tutoring hours across 14 students, they have seen increased levels of Literacy and Numeracy along with increases in school attendance from an average of 3.5 days - 4.7 days / week. Enrise saw computers being delivered to needy Aboriginal students along with the newly established Koordak Community Centre in WA which enabled digital access. They had 14 Indigenous students receive ongoing weekly tutoring throughout the year in addition 24 refurbished computers delivered to Indigenous-led community centres and individual students. Without this funding we would not have been able to provision and deliver this impact
