Overview

Sixteen of Sydney's best, funniest performers are getting together to raise money for indigenous students. More specifically, they're performing at a fundraiser for AIME Mentoring, an educational program that supports thousands of Australia's indigenous students.

Get down to the Footbridge Theatre on January 21, cough up between 50 and 100 bucks and you'll get time with triple j Hack preseter Tom Tilley, artistic director of Bangarra Dance Theatre Stephen Page, comedian and writer Jack Gow, YouTube star 'Throwing Guy', adventurer Steve Crombie and 11 other brilliant minds. Each performer will be doing their thing for five glorious minutes.

In 2013, AIME was listed as the 23rd best place to work in Australia. Not only does the organisation have admirable aspirations — it's got the stats to show its methods work. In 2013, 20.4 percent of students benefiting from AIME progressed from Year 9 to university — 5 times the national average for indigenous teenagers (4.1 percent) and bringing them closer to the national average for non-indigenous teenagers (37.4 percent). Plus, this year's Hottest 100 will raise funds for AIME. Legends.
