The
original This
Is Your Life
book complete with legendary Australian Golfer, Greg
Norman’s autographed script to go under
the hammer at a life changing event for Youth
Off The Streets
Donated by This is Your
Life Presenter and Journalist, Mike Munro,
the original This Is Your Life
book is set to generate a great deal of interest
from a wide variety of collectors as it goes to
auction at the fourth annual Youth Off The Streets
Celebration of Youth Ball.
Appearing in the first series
of This Is Your Life, the book
was used to celebrate the lives of over 50 successful
Australians who have significantly contributed
to Australian society including; Bryce Courtnay,
Garry McDonald, Steven and Mark Waugh, David Williamson,
Maggie Tabberer, Peter Brock and even Father Chris
Riley.
Originally a picture book of
Canada, This Is Your Life producers
removed the centre pages to attempt to lighten
the heavy book that was held by Mike Munro for
an hour and a half at a time in the filming of
the first series. Mr Munro eventually developed
an injury from holding the heavy book in one hand
for long periods and it was replaced by a lighter
version.
The book comes complete with
a Greg Norman autographed copy of the complete
script from the This Is Your Life
episode celebrating his life. It folds commemorative
photos of personalities celebrated and sits mounted
for posterity in a beautifully crafted wooden
and Perspex case.
For your chance to secure this
original collectors item join Father Chris Riley,
CEO and Founder of Youth Off The Streets and his
host Mike Munro as they celebrate the presentation
of 20 scholarships to disadvantaged young people
from around the nation.
“The scholarships are
win-win for both parties; disadvantaged young
people get a real chance to prove their worth
in their chosen career, while those generous enough
to offer money can see real results as they follow
the achievements of their sponsored scholarship
recipient,” said Mike Munro, This
is Your Life Presenter and Journalist.
Guests will also have the opportunity
to make a difference and win some fabulous prizes
including a brand new Kia Sorrento, exquisite
jewellery and a Paul McCartney signed guitar.
Now in it’s fourth year,
the 2007 Youth Off The Streets Celebration of
Youth Ball is set to be the event of the year
that is not to be missed.

About Youth Off The Streets:
Youth Off The Streets is a community
organisation working for young people who are
chronically homeless, drug dependent and recovering
from abuse. We support these young people as they
work to turn their lives around and overcome immense
personal traumas such as neglect and physical,
psychological and emotional abuse.
Since opening in 1991, Youth
Off The Streets has grown from a single food van
delivering meals to young homeless people on the
streets of Kings Cross to a major youth specific
agency providing a wide range of services offering
a full continuum of care.
It is our goal that these young
people will leave our care drug free, with a high
school education, living skills and a full or
part time job in hand. |
