Past and Ongoing Fundraising
Paul Kelly Concert 2003
In 2003, Paul Kelly began his support of Life, Love and Health with a concert in Collingwood Town Hall. This was Life, Love and Health’s first big event to bring together supporters of Timor-Leste and raise funds for the Balibo House Trust and the Alola Foundation.
‘Freedom Rising’ CD
In 2004, Paul Kelly and Luke Gosling teamed up to produce the ‘Freedom Rising’ CD. Funds raised were shared by Life, Love and Health, the Alola Foundation and Haburus, a Timorese NGO for Environmental Awareness. Special thanks to Paul Kelly for his great support, as well as Missy Higgins, The Living End, Casey Chambers, Hoodoo Gurus, Sime Nugent and other Australian and Timorese artists who gave their time and many previously unreleased tracks, to the fundraising project. Please contact us if you would like to purchase a CD.
Debt of Honour DVD
The DVD ‘Debt of Honour’ explores the unique bond which developed between the Australian soldiers and their Timorese companions who tried to defend Australia from a Japanese invasion during the Second World War. When the InterFET Force went into Timor-Leste in 1999, General Peter Cosgrove also referred to the debt of honour which the Australians owed to the Timorese for support in WW2.
