Since June 2019, bushfires in Australia have devastated the native wildlife and community - and fires continue to rage on. Feeling helpless on this side of the world, Aussie and Annapolis resident Christalene and her family and friends decided to take action to help in the best way they knew how - through entertainment and community support. Christalene and friends - Sara Russell, Deb Soreff, Brigette St. John, and Amanda Johnson - gathered together to create this Authentic Australia FUNdraiser.
