We would for like to thank Centrecorp for all the support offered to Eli Clake toward his goal of becoming a dancer over a number of years.

While in year 12 Eli was offered his first role with Opera Australia performing in Westside Story on the Sydney Harbour.

The following year he auditioned for Bangarra Dance Company and now is in his second year as a company member sharing stories of Aboriginal Australia at the highest level.

Only 1% of trained dancers will ever perform as professionals after over 10 years of intensive training. Centrecorp's support was vital in him accessing necessary professional training in Sydney and has given Eli the opportunity to represent Central Australia / Aboriginal culture on international and domestic stages.

Thanks
Nicole & Eli

Centrecorp have been able to provide vital financial assistance to enable the people of Central Australia who are in housing need to secure tenancies with Anglicare NT in their Transitional Housing program. This government funded program requires payment of a bond much like private rental accommodation so that participants experience the real-world requirements of tenancy responsibilities. However, immediately coming up with the bond to secure a property is not easy for people who may be homeless and Centrecorp have ensured that those in the most need do not fall through the cracks. The solution has been for Centrecorp to loan the bond monies to the tenant via Anglicare. Since its inception late last year this facility has enabled 10 families to move into their rental property. They are re-paying the bond loans over a period of time, which will provide them with a valuable aid to transition to permanent accommodation when the time is right. Anglicare have a long term relationship with Centrecorp which has enabled the organisation to support some of the most vulnerable members of our community with setting up their homes and this assistance has been a vital part of the housing continuum.
