Think+DO Tank Foundation collaborates with low-income and marginalised, urban communities in NSW, focusing on culturally and linguistically diverse women and children. Together, we develop a shared way of doing things, designing projects that have a demonstrated and lasting impact. Our evidence-based, replicable approaches improve social cohesion; reduce isolation; strengthen community capacity; and foster equity. By using the arts, imagination and creativity and social enterprise to approach communities we shift the realms of possibility while we simultaneously address the pragmatic challenges of disadvantage which hinder change.

We build confidence, employability skills, entrepreneurship capability and strong mentor connections for meaningful pathways into employment and enterprise. YEP Careers delivers practical, real-world and strengths-based programs that equip people to discover careers aligned to their passions, strengths and the needs of local industries. We work with people of all ages, with strong experience working with young people and those who face complex barriers to employment, including people in the criminal justice system. Our mentoring approach provides steady guidance, industry insight and the kind of support that keeps participants engaged and moving forward, whether they choose business ownership or working for an organisation. We partner with all levels of government, industry and community organisations across regional NSW to deliver locally responsive programs that lead to meaningful, sustainable employment and enterprise outcomes.
