THE DARWIN 50

Stacey McKenzie, a dynamic and determined woman from Darwin, is preparing for an incredible feat of endurance on July 20th. Known for her unwavering dedication to community welfare, Stacey will embark on a challenging 50-kilometer run, starting from Stuart Park highway, winding through the city, and finishing at the House of Darwin head office. This run symbolizes her deep commitment to making a positive impact on her beloved local community.

Stacey's passion for her community shines through in her decision to go the extra mile—literally. By supporting her run, you’re not just cheering her on; you’re contributing to vital initiatives that make our community stronger and more resilient. Your generosity will create lasting change for those who need it the most. Let's come together and make a difference!

House of Darwin Foundation is an

Indigenous-owned not-for-profit organisation

initiated by the House of Darwin team.

We are committed to creating positive change

and improving the lives of individuals and

communities in Australia’s Northern Territory.

Our mission is to empower local communities

through sports, education, and social

initiatives. We are authentic, traceable and

devoted to the people and causes we stand for

and with.

In 2022 the House of Darwin Foundation

launched Hoop Dreams. An initiative focused on

refurbishing basketball courts located in the

remote communities of the Northern Territory.

Basketball courts are a platform for health,

dance, and wellbeing for the wider community.

A central point that’s vital in bringing

people together.

The House of Darwin

Foundation have refurbished three basketball

courts with murals designed by the community,

for the community. A way for the youth to see

how their thoughts and creativity can directly

affect their environment. Our program aims to

create long lasting pride and unity in

Indigenous communities.

Making communities stronger — court by court.
