Western Chances empowers young people facing disadvantage in Melbourne’s west to achieve their potential. Melbourne's western suburbs have some of the fastest growing populations in Australia, yet they are also the most disadvantaged. We believe that education is transformative and has the potential to break the cycle of disadvantage. We support talented and motivated young people with educational scholarships and other life-changing opportunities. Raising just $100 can help a young student purchase a textbook and continue their education.
