Please Donate to the Bennelong SocietyThrough an annual conference and the website the Bennelong Society provides a unique forum for those interested in the plight of Aboriginal people. We are very frugal with our funds and our board is voluntary, indeed we use our own funds to keep the Society running. We believe we have had a significant impact on government attitudes towards Aboriginal policy. It is now more broadly accepted that great harm has been done by keeping Aboriginal people out of the real economy. There is still a long way to go in the transition and we intend to be at the forefront of the debate. We have always invited people to speak with great experience in the field, mostly those living in remote locations. Paying for their fares and accommodation and keeping our conference price low is important to us. Your donation will assist with this valuable work.
