Helping young Indigenous people achieve their goals

We believe that education is the key to closing the gap—which is why we’re striving to help Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people get the best chance at year 12 attainment.

Angus Crichton

Founding Director

Angus is a professional footballer for the Sydney Roosters in the NRL. Angus spent the first three seasons of his professional football career at the South Sydney Rabbitohs.

​Angus was a boarder at The Scots College, having grown up on a farm in country NSW. Angus was known at school for two things: his talent as a rugby player, and the energy and commitment he put into the Indigenous program.

​His support and friendship with the First Nations boys provided a great example to other students, and this helped develop a very successful Indigenous Program.

​Angus’ ongoing commitment to the advancement of Indigenous peoples has since lead to the establishment of First People Project.
