40K Foundation Australia

^^

40K doesn’t just talk about poverty- we believe in action. We think that the best way for someone to change their perception with respect to world poverty is to get their hands dirty and get in there. With a growing organization in Sydney, and the unfolding of our maiden project in Bangalore, there’s plenty of opportunity to get involved. Whether you’re busy here in Sydney or intend to get over to India and spend some time working with the kids themselves, we will be able to offer you an exciting opportunity to get involved in creating real change in people's lives.

Concert For The Cure

^^

Concert for the Cure was established in 2006 by a small group of school and university students. Our aim is to increase awareness of breast cancer, and to raise funds for research into this horrible, destructive illness. Very quickly we realised that our greatest strength was our youth, and the tremendous passion and drive of our wide circle of friends. We realised that if our small group knew so many young people eager to make a difference there were potentially millions more looking for ways to get involved but never being certain how. And so, right from our earliest days, we have been an organisation with a focus on young people. Not just on how we can connect to young people and inspire them to support our cause, but also how we can spread awareness of breast cancer to those same young people. By engaging with young people we have provided opportunities to get involved, and the response has been overwhelming. By involving more people in our organisation we believe we will be able to greatly increase involvement in charity - not just ours, and not just breast cancer charities – but instead inspiring young people to involve themselves in all manner of charities, and aspire to make a difference in any way they can.
