Your generosity enables Courage to Care to deliver our educational programs free of charge to schools across Victoria.
Every donation helps empower young people with the courage to care: to challenge prejudice, stand up to antisemitism and take action against all forms of racism and discrimination. Together, we’re equipping students to create real, lasting change in their classrooms and communities.
We have delivered Upstander Programs to more than 200,000 students across Victoria.
It is only with the support of our wonderful community that we can truly make racism and discrimination a thing of the past.
“It’s eye-opening and teaches us much more than history and the Holocaust. It inspires you to be an individual and stand up for your beliefs. It made me realise that I can make a difference.”
“Thank you for making the effort to come to our school. This is the 3rd year that you have come to our school. Your message is perfect for the work we do with our students on bullying.”
“The reward is the students’ reactions.”
“Thank you so much for telling your story. You’ve made me realise that there is a light at the end of the tunnel as I have been going through a hard time.”
“As a child of Holocaust survivors I feel strongly that through educating children about the consequences of discrimination we will be able to create a better and more embracing community.”
“This exhibition is exceptional. It is full of life-changing concepts and you are courageous to share it with us.”
“Thank you Courage to Care for helping us young people understand what to do in situations like the ones Louis went though, what to do when someone needs help. All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.”
“I have been volunteering with Courage to Care for 15 years and the longer I do so the more rewarding I find making young people aware of the consequences of being a bystander and the importance being an Upstander to help build a more just and cohesive community.”
“This two-hour workshop taught more to the students than we could get through in weeks at school!”
“I think the main messages that we took away from the program was that if I stand up, it will have a ripple effect, and everyone will stand up.”
