In the year of Reconciliation (2000) an enlightened young lawyer walked into an Aboriginal organisation in Melbourne (Naarn), saying he didn’t have much, but he wanted to help. Luckily he connected with Vicki Clark, OAM, a community worker who knew just how her people needed help.
This story harks back a few decades earlier too, to a young girl watching her mother working far away from the family, and sending parcels of books, pencils, and even footy boots, to family back home, in south west NSW.
Those memories were the genesis of Opening the Doors Foundation, but where to begin? In her own words, Vicki didn't have a clue how to set up the foundation that was her dream. And then, in walked the young lawyer named John Arthur.
How Vicki and John worked together to help Aboriginal families all around Victoria is the basis of this story: 10,000 Doors to Success.At Black and White Stories, we're talking about the positive vibes that come from sharing cultural connections.

Meet David Newry, a Miriwoong man, born and bred in remote north west Western Australia – almost part of the land itself – and Knut J. Olawsky, a German-born linguist who’s worked in Africa, America, New Guinea and Australia, who are working together to preserve the Miriwoong ancient language and the culture and traditions of the First Nations people who speak it.
Through language, the old people hope to pass on all-important history, customs, stories, traditions – all those things that go to give a person a sense of identity.
