Nonprofit Organization Management - St Kilda, Victoria, Australia
Originally named Shine Cambodia, Shine was established in 2016 with a clear mission: to ensure a community undergoing rapid change and financial difficulty could receive support in the hopes that the emerging generation of young people were safe, happy, and be given the opportunity to break the poverty cycle.Our recent change of name to Shine Connections recognises that while our work continues in Cambodia, we've grown to be something bigger. Shine Connections is about building communities around the world that are interconnected by their shared vision to create brighter futures for the next generation through education and social change.We have two main programs: Shine Cambodia and Shine ImpactShine Cambodia supports and empowers the local community of Otres, Cambodia to break the poverty cycle by providing education and community support services.Shine Impact is an online community and platform run by a group of young activists and academics in Melbourne which educates, connects and mobilises youth to enact positive social change through grassroots efforts and real-life action. Shine Impact engages in double impact through our members engaging in their own social change, while our social enterprise structure sees our profits going towards Shine Cambodia.
