The Think+DO Tank Foundation partners with marginalised communities in NSW to create and deliver multilingual arts programs that have a social impact.
We focus on culturally and linguistically diverse women, youth, and children.
Our programs are designed with community, for community. Through cultural connection, creativity, and multilingualism, we break barriers to social activity, shifting the systems that reinforce poverty. We employ evidence-based approaches to improve social cohesion, reduce isolation, strengthen community capacity, and foster equity.
By using the arts, imagination, and social enterprise to engage communities, we shift the realms of possibility while simultaneously addressing the pragmatic challenges of disadvantage that hinder change.
Art asks us to examine our humanity, to amplify the threads that connect us and diminish those that divide us through geography, language and politics. Art starts conversations, holds and celebrates diverse points of view and asks each of us to imagine, and to create a world that does not yet exist.
How can we create change if we don't have the imagination to design a different world for ourselves?
The Think+DO Tank Foundation amplifies the stories of people and their places, in their own languages and in English. By creating space for artistic self-expression in the languages spoken in the communities around us each of us can take an equal place in making new Australian stories and imagining new possibilities, together.

At the Think+DO Tank Foundation we start from a position of strength. We know our community members are among the lowest socio-economic and most marginalised people in Australia today.
We know the severe COVID lockdowns in 2021 took their toll.
We also know there is an enormous wealth of lived experience, professional and cultural knowledge, languages, faiths, and cultures that enrich and inform every project we co-create.
We create our programs together because they change lives for the better - and for the long term.
You can be part of this incredible journey of sustainable strength and recovery by making a donation today. Any amount over $2 is tax deductible, valued and highly effective.
