Mission Australia
Mission Australia transforms the lives of disadvantaged Australians.
Giving people a hand up is a key part of our culture. Many of us are fortunate enough to have a loving family, a safe home and steady job, but many Australians continue to struggle:
• 80% of couples with children who will be turned away from homeless shelters tonight.
• 40% of 16 to 24-year-olds have experienced a mental health disorder;
• 105,000 Australians without a home to go to tonight - 45,150 are under 25;
Mission Australia has been giving people a "fair go" for 150 years. Today our services transform the lives of 300,000 Australians a year. We empower youth, strive to solve homelessness and provide employment solutions.

St George Open Air Cinema
APN Outdoor has been a major sponsor of the St George Open Air Cinema for over ten years. Open Air Cinema is about making the most of summer in the fabulous city of Sydney.
Sitting on Mrs Macquarie’s Point looking out over a backdrop that spans the Opera House, Harbour Bridge and city skyline, it’s hard to imagine a better location anywhere in the world.
To make the most of the stunning spot, we partner with one of Sydney’s leading caterers to create a harbourside restaurant and bar where patrons gather from early evening. The atmosphere within the event becomes vibrant as more than 1,000 people meet, eat and enjoy the experience in the hours before screenings. Then at nightfall, our giant 350 square metre screen is hydraulically raised to stand three storeys high before an 1,850 seat grandstand. A thirty two speaker surround-sound audio system completes an unrivalled cinematic experience.
