Our Mission
Embrace Education is a non-profit, University-student run organisation that offers free educational support to disadvantaged high-school students. Our main focus is on providing students from refugee and recent migrant backgrounds with free tutoring. We also provide textbooks, calculators, stationery and other items to students in need.
We believe that education is essential to breaking the cycle of disadvantage and that every person is entitled to a quality education regardless of their background! Please visit the Volunteer section to find out how you can get involved!
Embrace in the Media

TSSM VCE Revision Lectures!
Submitted by admin on Thu, 29/10/2009 - 21:56
Embrace has again paid for year 12 students to attend revision lectures run by TSSM. Last year we sent students along to what amounted to $4872 worth of lectures. With TSSM's support we have been able to extend this relationship this year. Thanks to Embrace and TSSM, students across Melbourne have attended $8099 worth of lectures this year. This was only possible thanks to the generous discount afforded by TSSM. Please visit their website at http://www.tssm.com.au/ and recommend them to people you know who are doing VCE.
