Cambodia Country Officer
Who is Oaktree
The Oaktree Foundation is an aid and development organisation run by young people under the age of 26. We believe that education is the most powerful force we have to change the world. Oaktree takes action by partnering with developing communities to make educational opportunities reality.
In a world where people often only give token responses to poverty, Oaktree believes that young people can be leaders who don't just talk about change but create it. We believe that the key to making lasting change and breaking the poverty cycle is education. At the core of our work are our projects in developing communities. Oaktree partners with local organisations to provide educational opportunities to young people. Currently we support projects in four countries: East Timor, South Africa, Papua New Guinea and Cambodia. In Australia we support our projects through advocacy, fundraising and volunteer mobilisation.
The Story
In 2002, Hugh Evans lived and worked in the rural valley communities of KwaZulul-Natal, South Africa. Here he came to understand that bringing opportunity and hope to the community could only be achieved through a spirit of partnership. In 2003 Hugh and Nicolas Mackay founded The Oaktree Foundation to harness the potential of young people to reduce poverty and empower developing communities through education.
Oaktree grew from young people sitting in living rooms, cafes, school classrooms and church halls throughout Melbourne who were committed to building on this vision. Our first partnership was created with an organisation in South African called Sethani who wanted to build a community resource centre that would provide educational opportunity for 750 orphans and vulnerable children and this success has been replicated many times.
Achievements
Oaktree has had some notable achievements either individually or part of a coalition with other organisations. These include but are not limited to:
- In Australia, we have mobilised more than 10,000 supporters, run more than 300 conferences and speaking engagements and reached more than 150,000 people.
- We were the leaders behind the 2006 Make Poverty History Concert in Melbourne, the 2007 Make PovertyHistory Zero Seven Road Trip and the 2008 End Child Slavery Campaign.
- In 2007 the Oaktree Foundation was presented with the prestigious ‘Free Your Mind' award at the MTV Music Awards.
- By now, Oaktree's Schools 4 Schools program has expanded to over 40 schools across Australia, and is one of the largest programs in the country engaging school students on issues of social justice.
- We currently raise over $500,000 annually to support educational projects in developing communities
"The Oaktree Foundation is an outstanding advocate for increasing awareness among young people in Australia and overseas of development challenges. Its role in mobilising young people to tackle poverty - and to inspire them to believe that they can make a difference - is commendable."
The Honourable Kevin Rudd MP
Former Prime Minister of Australia
