YAL is a not-for-profit organisation supporting young Australians since 1905. From scholarships to mentorship and social connection, YAL creates a supportive environment for young Australians to grow and reach their full potential.
We create potential for a better tomorrow.
We are the oldest youth organisation in Western Australia.
Established in 1905
It is more than just a scholarship
We offer a bespoke scholarship program to support disadvantaged young Australians on their educational journey, in whatever form of education that suits them.
We have awarded $811,000 across all our programs to keep young Australians engaged in education.
Over the past 10 years
Bringing YAL’s purpose to Cairns
Since 1948, we have provided an opportunity to support the Cairns community, and what we do there makes you appreciate the ‘small’ moments in life.
Together, we make a difference for young Australians across the country.
We Bought a Business to Expand our Reach!
Your clean space fuels someone’s future. 100% of Castle Cleaning’s net profits help young Australian’s reach their potential.
The only limit to changing a young person’s tomorrow is your imagination. Let’s work together to help our young people reach their potential!

“The opportunity to contribute to the lives of young people and assisting with providing them with opportunities, helping to shape their lives and future has been a tremendous honour and a useful endeavour to donate my time to.”
