Schools 4 Schools

Schools 4 Schools was launched by The Oaktree Foundation in 2007 with the goal of providing life changing opportunities for young people in developing communities.

It is our belief that the most effective way to create positive action for change is through the investment and engagement with Australian youth to empower them with the understanding of the issues facing their peers living in poverty.

Australian Schools are partnered with schools in either South Africa or Cambodia. Oaktree provides each school with a dedicated mentor who educates students about the issues their partner school faces and issues of poverty more broadly.

The mentor empowers their students to take action against poverty and provide life changing educational opportunities for students in the developing world.

Schools 4 Schools students also have the opportunity to travel to Cambodia to see Oaktree’s partner projects first hand by participating in our Ambassador Challenge (Applications for 2012 opening soon).
