The Hope Gala Dinner, at Brisbane City Hall, is the major fundraising event on the Teen Challenge QLD calendar. Each year we gather together to raise much needed funds for, and to share in the life changing work of, the New Life Rehabilitation Centres.
Come and join us for a fun-filled night with delicious food, live entertainment, stories of transformed lives, a live and silent auction. Together we can raise $220,000 so that more people like Ben and Dom can live free from addiction.

Ben’s Story (Father)
Before I went to Teen Challenge QLD (TCQ), my life was a catastrophe. It was defined by addiction and depression. I had been addicted to heroin for ten years, was severely depressed and heavily medicated. My family life was shattered. My time in Teen Challenge gave me a new mindset and the skills needed to make lasting change. I learnt how to live free.
Dom’s Story (Son)
My life was full of challenges. I experienced things no child should have to. Addiction and dysfunction marked my family. I remember the day when I was 10 when I walked in on Dad injecting heroin. When I was 13 he attempted suicide. My constant thought was that I wasn’t good enough to make Dad happy. Things changed when Dad went to rehab, but my own life was unravelling. I felt like I came from nothing, but now my broken pieces have been put back together and God is using my story to help being freedom to others.
