Pilgrim Partnership Support Program

15 Jul 2008 - 20 Jul 2008

We want as many young people as possible from our neighbours in Oceania to take up the invitation from Pope Benedict XVI and attend World Youth Day in Sydney and we need your help to do this.

If you can't help out by hosting a pilgrim in Sydney, you can still support the program by raising much-needed funds to help with travel and other costs for visiting pilgrims. We are aiming to support the journeys of pilgrims from American Samoa, Caroline Islands, Cook Islands, East Timor, Fiji, French, Polynesia, Guam, Kiribati & Nauru, Marianas / Sapian, Marshall Islands, New Caledonia, Palau, Solomon Islands, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Wallis & Fortuna Islands, Indonesia (West Papua), Indigenous Australia (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander), Remote areas of Australia - Christmas Island, Palm Island, Cocos Islands and Norfolk Island.

WYD 2008

World Youth Day is the largest youth event in the world and will be held in Sydney from 15 - 20 July 2008. Organised by the Catholic Church, World Youth Day gathers young people from around the world to unite in their common faith in Jesus Christ and to build bridges of friendship and hope.

The WYD 2008 campaign is authorised to accept donations from Australian residents in New South Wales and Queensland.
