Charity FounderIn 2008 Tania was invited on a ‘once in a lifetime’ tour to the Middle East as Celebrity Guest and MC for the ‘Tour De Force’ concerts – shows to entertain the troops on deployment.

During an intense and dangerous three week tour of the Afghanistan and Iraq war zones, Tania’s life was changed. Her eyes were opened when she travelled with, and live the life of the military … wearing a bulletproof vest, helmet and protective clothing, and flying on Hercules Air Force planes from base to base while dodging gunfire.

She was amazed by the diversity of duties the Australian Defence Forces performed in areas of conflict, but the part that touched her heart the most was the work done towards improving infrastructure and services for the local people. This includes rebuilding the villages, constructing water tanks and teaching the local young men a trade to help themselves and those around them.

She has now embarked on a campaign to raise funds and awareness so she can contribute to the rebuilding of the lives, morale and homes of those innocent people in conflict zones, especially the children.

‘I feel so passionate about this that I have founded my own charity, Peace for the Children,” Tania announced recently. ‘This will be an on-going project to help the innocent victims of war.’

Money raised will go towards hospitals, medical supplies, the rebuilding of schools and infrastructure in areas where it’s most needed.
