Glass Jar Australia is the charity arm of Netball WA and was established in 2015.
The charity's core initiative is Shooting Stars, an education engagement program based within host schools to mentor, support and advocate for Aboriginal girls and young women. The program is place-based and community-led, offering a holistic approach to supporting positive social and emotional wellbeing while building confidence, cultural identity, leadership and the skills and knowledge required for young people to drive their own futures and reach their potential. Now with 21 school-based sites, Shooting Stars reaches over 1,000 girls and women across Western and South Australia. Glass Jar receives funding from underpinning partners: NIAA, Department of Education WA and Department of Education SA. They also receive funding support from corporate partners and grant providers.
