Foreign Aid Mime

Last weekend, hundreds of youthful V-Genners from around Australia took part in a national mime in capital cities in many states! This mime was made to raise awareness for the broken promise of the Australian Government regarding foreign aid. The mime was a national success, and a big congratulations to the many participants and organizers! For more information on the great works of VGen, visit www.vgen.org/ !
