Zac Lewis - Empowering youth to reach their full potential

Send us a text

Talent is everywhere, but opportunity is limited by your postcode.

Zac Lewis is the CEO of Western Chances, and organisation devoted to empowering young people to achieve their potential. 

There is an unfortunate, and very real correlation between life opportunities, and the postcode you live in. Western Chances is built on the idea of levelling the playing field for young people who limit their goals based on their financial situation. 
Zac will tell you, that it is amazing to see what can happen when you remove the barrier of cost to education, allowing people to purchase things like laptops and text books, or even the simple things like transport tickets and stationary. 

Each year they are growing, and are now awarding around 850 scholarships per year to kids with dreams of creating a better life for themselves, and their families. 

Western Chances has produced Doctors, Surgeons, Dancers, Engineers, Artists, Musicians, you name it, and most of which because of the scholarships they received which not only helped financially, but gave them belief in themselves. 

The recipients of the Western Chances scholarships are the next generation of community leaders, it's really inspiring stuff. 

Zac is a great guy, and certainly the right person to take on the task of lifting the youth. 
This episode is filled with the moving stories of people who have gone on to live their best lives.
