The Saltbush Foundation 2 Future initiative is a holistic, person-centred employment and engagement program designed to break the cycle of welfare dependence and empower individuals to pursue sustainable careers.
Saltbush is dedicated to empowering disadvantaged Aboriginal people by fostering employment opportunities and closing the employment gap. Through this initiative, we build meaningful, long-term relationships that create sustainable change in communities.
Foundation 2 Future offers a business-driven solution, enabling Aboriginal job seekers to build careers while helping employers develop a strong, skilled workforce. With a focus on mentoring, training, and employment pathways, the initiative ensures that both individuals and businesses benefit from long-term success.
Unlike conventional programs, Foundation 2 Future focuses on the individual, not just the job. Each participant receives customised support, including mentoring, counselling, and employment training, ensuring long-term success.
Developed by Aboriginal leaders and local experts, the program aligns with cultural values and personal obligations, creating an authentic pathway to employment.
Going beyond job placement, Foundation 2 Future provides on-the-job mentoring, well-being programs, and life skills training to ensure individuals remain engaged and succeed in the workforce.
The program collaborates directly with businesses and philanthropic partners, ensuring meaningful employment outcomes with measurable social and economic impact.
Foundation 2 Future offers businesses two tailored partnership models to participate in the program in a way that best aligns with their goals, workforce needs, and corporate social responsibility objectives.
This model is ideal for businesses looking to create meaningful community impact while aligning with CSR, RAP, and ESG frameworks.
This option allows businesses to directly shape the Aboriginal workforce pipeline by collaborating on customised training, recruitment, and mentoring programs.
Each partnership model is customisable, ensuring businesses can engage at the level that best suits their operations, industry, and workforce priorities.
Foundation 2 Future offers flexible investment levels to suit businesses of all sizes.
Custom partnership models available. Align with Reconciliation Action Plans (RAPs), Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and ESG goals while achieving workforce sustainability.
