Thanks to your kindness, generosity and support, our 33rd year in service was a tremendous success. It is difficult to capture everything that transpired and the whirlwind of events that took place during our 2017 campaign. In reflecting back over the year, we were fortunate to experience many achievements, receive a number of accolades and create special moments and cherished memories. Camp Sunshine offered 22 programs and served 637 families (2,505 family members) from 46 states and 5 countries. We enhanced our outreach by visiting hospitals, clinics and fairs across the country and by partnering with Tropical Smoothie Café, placing information about Camp Sunshine in each of their cafes. The highlight was the unveiling of the Sunshine Smoothie & Sunshine Cup. We also expanded our transportation assistance program to families in need, thanks to the generosity of Hands on Tzedakah, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Noyes Brain Tumor Foundation, SEALs for Sunshine, Windham Automotive (Ron Eby), John & Ann Ewalt, Tropical Smoothie Café, and Texas Roadhouse. In fact, you may have even seen our branded van or bus on the road during your travels.

  • Young Divas Album Download Jessica Mauboy
    young divas album download Jessica Mauboy. Jessica Hilda Mauboy (born 4 August 1989) is an Australian singer and songwriter who rose to prominence on the fourth season of Australian Idol in 2006, placing second behind winner Damien Leith. Since Idol, she has released two solo albums which were certified gold and platinum respectively. She has multiple singles from her second album "Been Waiting" that have charted extremely well particularly the #1 single "Burn", "Running Back" and "Because". She was one of the support act for Beyonce Knowles on tour "I Am. " along with US Singer and Rapper, Flo Rida. Jessica Hillda Mauboy's father is of Timorese-Indonesian origin while her mother is of Indigenous Australian, Native American and English descent. At 14, she won the Telstra 'Road to Tamworth' competition, with the grand prize being a single recording contract with Sony BMG. She then recorded a country version of Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". Years later, during Australian Idol, this contract became a source of controversy, with certain media reports stating that already having a recording contract was against the rules of Idol. Grundy Television said Mauboy's experiences in Tamworth had no bearing on her involvement in Australian Idol and that she no longer had a contract with Sony, allowing her to participate in the competition. Jessica cites Mariah Carey and Michael Jackson as her musical influences; naming Carey's hits "My All", "Anytime You Need A Friend", "Butterfly" and "Hero" as personal favourites. In the summer of 2006, Jessica auditioned for the fourth season of Australian Idol in Alice Springs.
