More From Our Girls in Australia

The girls from Drum Atweme — the Collette Foundation’s Australia program — performed recently, showcasing the great works of this orgranization, which was formed to help the needs of the aboriginal at risk youth, particularly girls. The focus of the program is to create a positive influence and healthy atmosphere through the use of traditional music. The group consists of Aboriginal girls from the ages of 6-13, who must remain in school to be part of the program.
