A Groundbreaking Initiative to Empower the Next Generation

In a move that transcends the boundaries of sports and taps into the aspirations of young Australians, Optus, the Official Supporter and Optus Sport, the Official Broadcaster of the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ in Australia, have launched the Inspiration Grants Program. The initiative has already garnered an overwhelming 13,192 applications from across the nation, showcasing a plethora of passions and ambitions.

The Matildas: The Spark Behind the Program

The program draws its inspiration from the indomitable spirit of the Matildas, Australia’s national women’s soccer team. Targeting the age group of 13-19 years, the program offers 64 grants, each valued at $3,000. The aim is to fuel the dreams of young Australians, whether they are budding athletes, aspiring scientists, or community activists. The response has been particularly strong from the sporting community, featuring applicants who dream of becoming Olympians, Paralympians, and World Champions.

A Diverse Array of Aspirations: From Sports to STEM

The Inspiration Grants Program is not just for athletes. It has attracted a wide range of applicants, from aspiring screenwriters to young individuals interested in STEM careers, and even teenagers keen on making a difference in their local disability networks. The program has successfully tapped into the diverse talents and aspirations of young Australians, from metropolitan cities to regional areas.

Celebrity Endorsements: TikTok Creators Join the Movement

To further amplify the program’s reach, Optus enlisted the help of 64 content creators from various fields. These include comedians, sports stars, florists, stunt performers, teachers, and even Formula 1 drivers. Notable TikTok creators like Scotty James, Ben Stubbs, Jenna with the Pink, and Emily Grosser have joined the campaign, sharing invaluable life lessons they wish they had known at a younger age.

The Lasting Impact: A Word from the Leaders

Matt Williams, Optus Managing Director, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “We were deeply inspired by the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023TM and are so proud of the Matildas players who competed. These grants are our way of amplifying that inspiration and ensuring its lasting impact.”

He further added,“We’ve been able to create a groundswell of enthusiasm and were overwhelmed by the quality and quantity of applications. This program seeks to empower the Australian teenagers who embody the spirit of the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023TM through their dreams and passions.”

Matildas Vice-Captain and Optus Ambassador, Steph Catley, also weighed in, saying, “I believe that with hard work, dedication, and a passion for what you do, anything is possible. The Optus Inspiration Grants Program provides a wonderful opportunity for individuals to pursue their dreams and make a positive impact within their community. I’m excited to see the incredible journeys and witness the impact on the next generation that will be fuelled by these grants.”

With such a robust initiative, Optus is not merely celebrating the achievements of the Matildas in the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ but is also laying the groundwork for the next generation of Australian dreamers and achievers.
