Friends of Baucau - movie fundraiser

Interested in seeing the new Adam Elliot animation Memoir of Snail?

Friends of Baucau is having a fundraiser night at Westgarth Cinema coming up on Thursday 17 October. See the poster below for details.

You can book in via Trybooking or scan the QR code.

You possibly know that Alphington Community Centre and the Yarra and Darebin neighbourhood houses have a long-standing relationship with Friends of Baucau … I was lucky enough to go over to Timor-Leste a few years ago with them, to learn more about women’s empowerment and community development on a shoestring, in an international context.

There are similar friendship groups dotted across Victoria that support community empowerment in towns and cities across Timor-Leste. They are wonderful … and make a real difference for our international neighbours who live in the poorest country in our region.

I will be ant the movie and look forward to seeing you too hopefully.
