Alpine Sport Foundation
Empowering Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth through transformative alpine sport experiences that foster resilience, cultural connection, leadership, and Blak joy!
Welcome to the Australian Indigenous Alpine Sport Foundation
Proudly First Nations-led and entirely volunteer-run, the Australian Indigenous Alpine Sport Foundation (AIASF) empowers Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth through snow-sports, cultural connection, and mentoring. Since 2015, our programs have created space for young mob to grow, reflect, and thrive.
What we do.
AIASF delivers cultural mentoring programs which include alpine camps in both summer and winter seasons designed to reward school attendance and engagement. Each program includes three full days on the snow with lifts, gear, lessons, and cultural activities — all coordinated by our team.
Participants are supported by mentors and walk away with new skills, friendships, and stronger cultural identity.
Now I feel like I can do anything."
Support our work.
We receive no government funding and rely entirely on donations, sponsorships, and in-kind support to operate. You can help by contributing snow gear, accommodation, meals, or funds — all tax-deductible. We also welcome partnerships with schools and ACCOs wanting to engage their students.
