Australians heed the call for help<br />

more high quality community services. The Red Shield Appeal is a<br />
major annual fundraising drive to help finance the Salvation Army’s<br />

NEEd an adrenalin fix? Want to<br />
experience what real speed feels like just<br />
inches from the ground – go karting!<br />
Tired of their usual brand of ‘social days’,<br />

And what an experience it turned out to be.<br />
Everyone had a grand time, with lots of fun,<br />
thrills and excitement thrown into the mix<br />
at the ‘Grand Prix’. Congratulations to our<br />
champions and runners-up.<br />

just 16, Ella lived on the streets and slept on trains before she came<br />
to Oasis with an addiction problem. Aid workers helped Ella into<br />
rehabilitation and gave her stable accommodation. With her passion<br />
for music and skating, she became involved in Oasis’ Streetradio.net,<br />
a programme that allows disadvantaged youths gain skills in radio<br />
production.<br />
Ella now hosts a weekly Oasis skateboarding and music programme,<br />
has completed a Foxtel media course and a three-month paid stint at<br />
a commercial radio station in Sydney. She was recently offered a fulltime<br />
job in commercial broadcasting.<br />
Well done, Ella. You are truly realising your true potential.<br />
