Structure & operations
Ganbina is a registered charity* which was formed in 1997. Our offices are in Shepparton and Melbourne.
Our Jobs4U2 mentoring program was developed for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children living in the Goulburn Valley, home to one of the largest Indigenous populations in Australia.
These programs are delivered by a team of mentors and developed and managed by CEO Anthony Cavanagh and an external Board of Directors.
Ganbina operates independently and is free from any political, religious or other affiliations.
We do not seek government funding and rely 100% on donations from individuals, the community, businesses and philanthropic trusts.
Our operations are open to review at any time and full documentation on funding and expenditure is available upon request.
* Ganbina is the trading name of the Koori Economic Employment and Training Agency, ABN 29 564 690 543, Association Number A0035292U.
