Bali
Appeal gets Angry
The
charitable Foundation launched out of the
devastation and tragedy of the 2002 Sari Night
Club bombings has secured Australian rock legend
Angry Anderson as its Ambassador.
The Dunn & Lewis Youth Development
Foundation was established by Ulladulla resident
Gayle Dunn, after the death of her 18 year old
son Craig in the Bali bombings along with his
best mate Danny Lewis.
Her story was featured during Saturday 7 October
2006 screening of the confronting TV special
'Bom Bali' on Network TEN, a groundbreaking
docudrama that is the most powerful account of
the 2002 Bali bombings ever seen on television -
featuring the testimony of survivors, the
families of the dead and the bombers
themselves.
Angry was so moved by Gayle's story, he has
pledged to give the Foundation's Capital Appeal
his total commitment to ensure that the South
Coast Mum's dream becomes reality.
Turning tragedy into triumph by establishing the
Dunn & Lewis Youth Memorial Centre on the
South Coast of NSW in memory, just not of her
son, but of all Australians killed in the two
Bali bombings. Gayle hopes to have the Federal
Government declare the campaign a project of
national significance . By securing Ambassador
Angry Anderson. Gayle is also supporting Rupert
Murdoch s latest initiative of getting artists
support against terrorism.
The Foundation was established with the purpose
of establishing the Dunn & Lewis Youth
Memorial Centre as a facility that would
re-invigorate the notion of family and community
in a part of regional Australia that has a
chronic need for such a facility. With a
significant indigenous population, as well as
high youth unemployment, the Centre will provide
hope for not only young people on the South
Coast of NSW but for youth Australia wide,
especially those impacted by trauma; family,
accident or criminally related issues, including
terrorism.
The Campaign is off to a flying start with a
private Foundation donating a significant amount
towards the Dunn & Lewis Youth Memorial
Centre Appeal, along with the Federal Government
Regional Partnerships program. It is Gayle Dunn
s dream to have the Centre open its doors on 12
October 2007, the 5th Anniversary of the Bali
bombings.
Angry (Gary Anderson) has been a long term
supporter of charitable causes and was
acknowledged with an Advance Australia Award in
1986, an AM in 1993 and the Special Merit
Advance Australia Award in 1995.
Angry has a strong empathy with Australia s
youth having confronted many of the problems
this appeal will alleviate, and its connection
with the tragedy of the Bali bombings has struck
a real chord with the Rose Tattoo front man.
The community and charity work of Angry Anderson
initially came to the public's attention through
the "Challenge" series on the Nine Network. This
is yet another challenge the wild man of rock is
looking forward to with great relish.
Gayle Dunn, mother of Craig started up this
program, to give youths of Australia the
future her son never got to see. There are
many opportunities to become involved with this
project. Email
