Highway Foundation

HIGHWAY'S MISSION

We are a newly established youth charity based in Melbourne that is boldly taking a very different and exciting road!

In these challenging and changing times, we are passionate about inspiring young people to be the best versions of themselves and feeling empowered to change their world for good and helping others to do the same.

Instead of focusing on what’s wrong, we inspire youth to move towards goals that energise and make them the best versions of themselves. We are focused on young people having positive connections with other young people to build a sense of deep belonging. Young people need to be led by hope and their own inspired goals to help navigate their lives away from mental illness and loneliness. At Highway, young people can feel connected, heard, safe and inspired.

At Highway, we help young people to find their way in life.
