Fuelled by my own journey as an athlete, I’ve learned firsthand how opportunity, support, and guidance can transform potential into achievement. My success didn’t come from natural talent alone — it was built on the belief and encouragement of people who saw something in me and chose to help nurture that dream.  Along the way, I discovered that no one reaches their goals alone. Every step I took was strengthened by a community that believed in me, even when the path wasn’t easy. Their support became the foundation that allowed me to grow, compete, and ultimately represent Australia on the world stage.  That same spirit of belief and collective support is what drives me today through the Beyond Bol Foundation. It’s my way of giving back — creating opportunities for young people from CALD communities to chase their dreams, to be seen, and to be supported, just as I was. Many young people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities face barriers that stop them from accessing sport — from financial challenges to language and cultural differences. These obstacles mean that talent often goes unseen and dreams go unrealised.  The Beyond Bol Foundation exists to change that. We provide financial support for fees and equipment, create inclusive sporting pathways, and connect young athletes with mentors who understand their journey.  we run programs that break down barriers and open doors for young people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities. Access to Sport – We cover costs like registration fees, uniforms, and equipment so every child can play. Mentorship &amp; Leadership – We connect young athletes with mentors who guide, inspire, and help them build confidence on and off the field. Community Inclusion – We work with clubs and schools to create welcoming, culturally aware environments where families feel supported. Your donation helps break down these barriers — giving every young person the chance to play, belong, and achieve their potential.
