The Crows have had an on-going fostership program with the APY Lands since 2008. Through the program the Club is aiming to make a difference to the lifestyle of people living in the APY Lands through football. The program involves coaching, training and lifestyle programs specifically this year teaching the community about ‘My Eye Health’ to promote eye hygiene.
In September each year Crows players also spend the week in the Lands watching the local finals, holding the Crows in Schools clinic and talking to the community about health and education.
