Hi. Welcome to the Kokoda Channel
I'm Will Genia, Half-back for the Wallabies,
and I'm delighted to be an ambassador for the Kokoda Track Foundation.
I was born in Papua New Guinea, and grew up in Australia, so I have both nations in my heart.
Living in PNG is very different to Australia.
90% of people there are subsistence farmers.
Half of them live on less than a dollar a day.
I've agreed to be an ambassador for the Kokoda Track Foundation
to support the work it's doing to improve the lives of people in PNG.
It delievers projects in health, education,
community development,
and micro business for more than forty villages. It's been doing that for
ten years
but this year we'll be embarking on our biggest ever project. We're building Kokoda
College,
the first teacher's college in a rural area in PNG.
It'll change many lives.
If you can help,
please check our website
and give us a hand.
