About
Did you know it costs around $1500 a day to keep a young person in Australian youth detention? In stark contrast, it only costs $3600 a year to provide a mentor through Big Brothers Big Sisters.
To support this cause, We're getting locked up, and we need your help to raise my bail! All funds will go towards helping young people find life-changing connections and build a brighter future.
Here's How It Works:
Experience Jail Life
Upon arrival, Inmates will be stripped of their possessions, given a prison uniform, fingerprinted, photographed, and fed prison gruel in the exercise yard.
Mock Interrogation and Court:
Inmates will face an interrogation and court proceedings before being sentenced to cell time with my gang or in solitary confinement!
Fundraising Goals:
Remand Inmate: Raise $1000 for release
This unique experience will help bring attention to the urgent need for mentorship programs, highlighting the stark contrast between the high costs of detention and the relatively low costs of preventive mentoring.
Event Details:
Date: 2nd of May, 2025
Time: 4:30pm - 11:00pm
Location: U159 Sheridan St, Gundagai NSW 2722
Help me make a difference in the lives of young people by donating to my bail fund. Together, we can support Big Brothers Big Sisters and help more young people find the guidance they need.
Donate now and help the Inmates from Gundagai Gaol!
My Story
"I didn't do it! I'm innocent! It wasn't me... honest!"
As a local youth worker and former school teacher I am passionate about working with, listening to and supporting young people to realise and reach their full potential.
I believe that it is vital that young people have opportunities to thrive in their local communities and are supported when they have big moments or things go off track.
I see the value of mentorship in my everyday work with the ROAR program at Intereach. ROAR (Reach Out And Relax) is an Early Intervention Support Service for young people and their families.
I am excited to support this amazing event and the local youth service Big Brothers Big Sisters.
