About Me

Shepparton Vision Group

You want to go make poverty history? Sure Y not
Fact: Generation Y (people born between 1980 and 1994) are the first generation to have the economic capability to make poverty history.
the Shepparton Vision Group Is run by youth for youth, and aims to educate, inspire and unite the youth of Australia in the pursuit to...
MAKE POVERTY HISTORY.
we believe that the most effective way to Make Poverty History is through advocacy. By raising the awareness and motivation of the general public direct pressure is placed on the government to act.
Previous generations have put a man on the moon, made amazing advances in medicine, abolished slavery and ended the apartheid. Now it is our turn, our turn to take our place in the history books, our turn to define ourselves.
Let's not be remembered as the generation who could have made history, who could have changed the world. Let us be remembered as the generation who did make history, who did change the world.
The generation who made poverty history.
The Shepparton Vision Group was born from the dreams and passion of Ange And Nick, two motivated youths of Australia who decided they would be the change they wanted to see in the world. They along with their mate James co-founded Gen Y Not, and are willing to fight heart and soul for everybody's right to a life free from chains of poverty.
Vision Groups are an initiative Vision Generation, thank you to VGen, WV, STIR and the members of the Blender for making this possible :)
