Uncle is a mentoring program existing for boys (particularly those with absent fathers) who would benefit from a more supportive environment of positive male role models. Uncle recruits, screens [1], trains and supports adult male mentors to spend time with local boys and organizes and facilitates activities and workshops where men and boys interact, learn, play and work together. Uncle builds communities of men that care about the young men in their community and also gives the boys an alternative social community outside of home and school in which to explore their place in the world. Uncle has been operating solely in Byron Bay and surrounds for ten years and is run by our Coordinator, Mark Gasson. |
UNCLE is nominated again this year in recognition of the good work they do in our community. The value of positive role models for young people can never be underestimated....We also recognize the valuable contribution the Rural Volunteer Fire Service makes to the community. The Mullumbimby Soup Kitchen Children's Christmas Appeal is indeed a blessing for the children so we are also supporting this local charitable initiative. Earthdance Byron Bay 2009 is a celebration of the diverse community of the region. I must honour the dedication and commitment of Jerry Cook of TrancEnhance without whose tireless support this landmark event would not have succeeded, and all the beautiful forest dancers of the rainbow region who make it all worthwhile. Peace MK This is a glass free event and there is a total fire ban at the moment. |
