What do Daryl Braithwaite, Conrad Sewell, Courtney Act and Jimmy Rees all have in common? These Aussie icons are banding together for Unite to Feed Australia Live, a mammoth fundraising concert being thrown by OzHarvest, Australia's leading food rescue organisation. Going down in November at the ICC Theatre in Sydney, this great big Aussie shindig will raise seriously needed funds to provide meals for those struggling to make ends meet. Singing ‘The Horses’ while supporting a great cause? Doesn’t get much better than that!
This year, OzHarvest celebrates 20 years of feeding Aussies in need through their community food banks, cooking classes, food trucks, youth education programs and not-for-profit café Refettorio. The good folk in yellow have set an ambitious goal to deliver an additional 5 million meals using the funds raised from Unite to Feed Australia Live. Want to help make it happen? Here’s how you can get involved.
