We run youth outreach programs out of the Woden Community Centre. Our programs seek to educate at-risk youth, help to inform them about basic life skills and wellbeing. We also run specialised programs that teach young people how to budget and how to prepare healthy meals.

Raw Potential Canberra is a nonprofit organisation that receives minimal Government funding. We are 100% reliant on the kindness and generosity of local Canberrans, local businesses and our Corporate Partners. We exist to help pick up the pieces where youth fall between the cracks of other services, sometimes due to them being below the age needed to qualify for assistance.

We need

Your generosity will help fuel our mission and will directly impact the lives of young, at-risk Canberrans. Your generosity can and will actually change lives for good and transform the future of young Canberrans in need.
