Happy 2012! We’ve got some exciting projects and campaigns lined up for this year. If you’re keen to help us make them successful, please apply for one of our new volunteer roles:
Albert Nobbs is a period drama about identity. It focuses on the role of women and how one woman’s ingenuity allowed her to function in a completely patriarchal system, allowing her to be in charge of her own life.
“A gripping ensemble piece. Glenn Close is terrific … highly affecting.” – The Guardian
Thanks to our friends at Hopscotch, we are giving away 10 passes to see Albert Nobbs from 12 January in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Adelaide, Perth or Canberra. To win, be one of the first ten people to send us an email with your name and postal address.
Over four weeks in May & June 2011, The Body Shop customers were asked to Give Racism The Finger. During that time we collected 50,706 fingerprints in 83 stores across Australia. The Body Shop initiated conversations with 300,000 customers during the campaign.
GiveNow Week takes place around Australia during December each year to focus attention on the many ways we can make a difference to the lives of others.
This week, please make a donation to All Together Now to help us continue to promote the prevention of racism. We are the only national not-for-profit working solely on addressing racism in Australia. As you’ll see from our recent Annual Report and Give Racism The Finger project report, our overheads are extremely low (1%) and our social impact is high. Every dollar you donate will make a difference.
