Community story
Making up for self esteem
Whether it is urban Australia or on an island in Australia’s northern waters - a bit of lippy, make up and nail polish, goes a long way in helping a young woman’s self-esteem and education.
This was the case for teenage girls on Croker and Goulburn Islands.
A project involving deportment and grooming for young women was put together by the West Arnhem Shire Council in partnership with Indigenous Community Volunteers (ICV).
Volunteer extending personal boundaries
I am just a city slicker really. Well, until I volunteered with ICV.
My most recent project is assisting Walgett Aboriginal Medical Services (WAMS) with their Silver Jubilee in April 2011.
Who said it was scary to fly on small planes? I had to have hypnotherapy to fly.
