FNQ Emergency Services Association for The Fire Project
For our 2023 Charity Ball, we have chosen local charity, The Fire Project, to receive all funds raised! The Fire Project aims to promote positive life skills in young people by identifying youth at risk, establishing meaningful relationships, providing adult and peer mentoring opportunities and building outdoor recreational activities that link to promote positive social interaction and ancient connections with the local Cairns region. The project assists in diverting young people from unstructured and unsupported environments where they may be at risk of offending or further offending. Tailored programs allow youth the chance to get to know themselves better and create a brighter future. Harbrow Mentoring runs the Fire Project. Harbrow Mentoring strives to improve the life skills of young people through its three key pillars: Leadership, Mentoring, and Sport and is operated by Cairns local brothers Marc and Jarrod Harbrow.

John's Tipi & Peru Pilgrimage
I’m putting this up secretly to attract more attention so that more of you attend to the first full moon drumming in the new tipi!(and fundraising for new seagrass and a trip to Peru for John John as you know has been offering so much to community, most of it in service or very low priced. He gives and has given so much of himself through the generosity of his heart, providing sanctuary, healing and assisting people to find their own medicine for so many over the years! He spends a lot of his time these days assisting his elderly parents, (90, 93) which limits his ‘extra’ earning capacity, and is lax to put his pricing up,though many of us encourage him to… He works tirelessly and lovingly through his service to all! He fronted the money for the tipi himself, and it could do with more seagrass, and he could definitely do with reimbursement of the Tipi so he can travel later in the year...though you would never hear this from him as he is a humble private person with a massive heart.
