• About Us

    At Books n Boots, we aim to deliver services that support good health, wellbeing, and the happiness of First Nations children across Australia. We strive to level inequalities in health and education through our programs; the Tiny Treasures project, one on one tutoring, and early intervention cultural programs.

     

    Our vision is to Close the Gap, together with First Nations people and their community, as we strongly believe in Self Determination. As an organisation we are guided by foundational principles of Partnership, Collaboration, and Environmental Sustainability, and take a bottom-up, grassroots approach to address disadvantage.

  • How it all Started

    Books n Boots Inc. was established in 2015 in response to the growing demand for books in First Nations rural and remote communities and schools. We saw this as a vital element in helping close the literacy gap for First Nations children. National studies have shown that a child who is assisted by parents at home in reading, and read to, not only begins learning earlier but has a more thorough understanding of the elements of literature.

     

    We began by lobbying for pre-loved books in the community and advertising for private donors. Our Board consists of 100% First Nations Directors. We continue to work with existing education and sporting organisations in partnering communities, without duplicating the valuable assistance they already provide.

  • We are a Charity

    Books n Boots is a recipient of Charity and DGR Status. All financial donations are tax-deductible
