Aims and objectives

and show the common links between these areas
- To encourage youth to live out their dreams whilst positively contributing to the environment,
animals and humanity.

efforts firsthand.
- To acknowledge people from many different countries who contribute to the world with positive
intent.
- To improve relations between Australia and other countries.
- To enhance the positive impact that the media can have on global society.
How the aims and objectives will be achieved
- By connecting people emotionally to the passion of activists through artistic and creative
content.
- By bringing attention to the challenges faced by orphanages, schools, community groups, animal
sanctuaries, and environmental and conservation projects.
- By acting as a cultural and social ambassador for Australia.
- By providing impoverished people with information and options to become involved in volunteering.
- Through inspiring motivational speeches given to school students.
In order to achieve this, support is needed from the community, including businesses and individuals.
The project is currently in need of sponsorship and donations.
