The Young Ambition Fund
Young Ambition Ballarat provided support for the community through fundraising and volunteering activity for 20 years.
From it's inception as a Rotary club in 2002, Young Ambition provided an opportunity for young professionals and community-minded individuals to support initiatives and projects in the Ballarat region aimed at improving local outcomes and aiding organisations and individuals in need.
In 2022, Rotary Ballarat Young Ambition created a sub fund to be administered by the Ballarat Foundation to ensure the legacy of young people giving back to the community continues through charitable projects and programs aimed at reducing food insecurity and housing insecurity, improving youth wellbeing and early childhood development and responses to mental health, violence against women and general community hardship.
The Young Ambition fund is now open for online donations.
Alfredton Rotary Club members Jill Oliver and Malcolm Roberts and Young Ambition president Jane Jens.
