The Oolah Project
(Meaning water in Bardi)
Delivery Date: October 2025
Location: Dampier Peninsula,
Western Australia
The Bardi-Jawi People of the remote
Lullumb and Mudnunn communities
continue to care for Country and
maintain strong connections to
their cultural traditions and
practices.
Despite their long ancestral
connection to Water and Country
through songs and stories, they
currently have no access to clean,
safe water on their traditional lands.
To ensure community, language and
culture not only survive but thrive
access to clean water on Country
is essential. As the foundation for
good health and wellbeing,
clean water will create the conditions
for the community to prosper by
enabling economic independence
through cultural tourism
WALK WITH US
Let’s build a future together —
one community, one drop at a time.
Clean Water. Strong Culture. Real Impact.
The Reece Foundation, Mudnunn Aboriginal Corporation and iSupplyAU are working together to provide safe water and sanitation to the Mudnunn and Lullumb communities – a vital, community-led initiative for better health and wellbeing.
Working directly with Traditional Owners, local skilled workers, and industry experts, the project will deliver:
> Community-informed water infrastructure
> Filtration and treatment systems tailored to local conditions
> Sanitation solutions that support health and dignity
> Ongoing training, maintenance, and local ownership
This isn’t just infrastructure. It’s a model for sustainable, community-first impact. Your organisation can play a vital role.
Contributions are:
> Tax-deductible
> Recognised through Kindness Credits
> Aligned with your Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) goals
> Outcomes tracked and recorded

A successful outcome here will not only transform the lives of the Lullumb and Mudnunn community members—it will pave the way for similar projects across the Kimberley and beyond, demonstrating what’s possible when we combine cultural ambition with practical action.
Together, iSupplyAU and Corporate Australia can create a legacy—supporting community, protecting Country, and advancing cultural strength for generations to come.
