An Indigenous Education Scholarship is about more than just academics. It’s about celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and excellence. Young people have the strength and determination to realise their dreams in any field they choose.
That’s why celebrating Indigenous excellence matters – it shows our young people what’s possible, with the right support around them to pursue their goals and aspirations.
We want to see every young person thrive. That means access to education, staying connected to culture, and being supported every step of the way. A GO Scholarship brings all of that together.

The Murrays are a proud Wiradjuri family living on Dharawal lands. Four of the Murray kids – Bowen, 18, Lylah, 16, Arley, 13 and Kiara, 7 - are recipients of a GO Scholarship.
Their mum Kadie is proud that her children are supported through GO’s Program, she says, “The financial support is one part of it, but it’s also about the cultural connections, the opportunities, and the sense of belonging that GO gives them.”
As a family of seven, their home is always full and busy. Through the funds available from their GO Scholarships, they’ve been able to set up a dedicated study space at home, with a desk, a place to sit and tech devices to support their schoolwork. It’s created a space where they can focus, stay on top of their learning and work in a way that suits them.
Their Mum Kadie says,
The GO Foundation supports Indigenous students on their education journeys, backing them to pursue their goals at school and beyond.
GO Scholarships are built around two key pillars: participation at school and connection to culture.
More than 2,300 Indigenous students have received a GO Scholarship, with more Scholars than ever completing Year 12 and continuing on to further study.

The GO Foundation is an Aboriginal-led organisation, with lived knowledge and experience of how to improve outcomes for First Nations people. It was founded by Sydney Swans legends Adam Goodes and Michael O’Loughlin to provide a supportive network so each child can find success that’s true to themselves.
