A message from our Chairman, Gerald Kenneally
Happy New Year from everyone at ATLAS and welcome to our January 2025 update!
“Your friends do not forget you”
I hope during the Christmas and New Year break you all had the chance to catch up with family and friends.
FUNDAÇÃO ATLAS TIMOR-LESTE is now operational with our first meeting in December 2024. The establishment of this Foundation now gives ATLAS a greater presence in Timor-Leste.
Special thanks to Greg Mills for his work in liaising with ABREU & CO, Solicitors in Timor-Leste and Maria Dos Santos ATLAS representative in Timor-Leste.
I would like to welcome Getrudis Da Silva as a Director of FUNDAÇÃO ATLAS TIMOR-LESTE. Getrudis joins myself and Maria as Directors of the FUNDAÇÃO.
THANK YOU to everyone who purchased Christmas cakes, after expenses we raised $5,700.00 – plus calories (lol).
Special thanks to Father Graham McIntyre’s sister, Joanne, for her fine work in baking these delicious cakes and presenting them in boxes tied up with Christmas ribbons.
The funds raised will go to the support of ATLAS Projects in Timor-Leste. ATLAS was able to send cakes interstate to long time donors and friends of donors.
This year we plan to send out cake order forms early.
Thank you for your continued support of ATLAS and for helping us continue to support Timor-Leste and honouring the Timorese who supported our diggers in 1942 and lost their lives because of their unconditional support “Your Friends Do Not Forget You”.

Till next time… Obrigada.
