Our business model

Big Sky Stories is a registered charity that operates as a social enterprise.

Just like any other business, a social enterprise generates profit from sales and service. What makes it different is that profits are used for community, rather than personal benefit.

You’ve already seen our homepage, so you know what we’re about:

Children - stories - creativity – language – literacy - creative arts

Everything we sell and do at Big Sky Stories is for the benefit of the community of far west NSW, more than it is for the benefit of us as Big Sky Stories founders and staff.  

Obviously Big Sky Stories can’t do the work it does without people and just like you, we have bills to pay, so yes we do take home a wage. This is considered a Big Sky Stories expense, just like keeping the lights on, the landlord happy and the many other outgoings that we have to pay to function.
