The Oasis Committee has teamed up with Perth distillery Spirit of Little Things to create a bottle of gin, with all proceeds from the signature gin going towards helping Western Australia’s disadvantaged youth.
The West Australian charity aims to leverage the power of the WA advertising and communications industry to drive continued financial support to the Salvation Army and the Oasis Project, which supports disadvantaged youth between the ages of 16 and 25 by creating safe, supported, and sustainable accommodation options.
The Committee has collaborated with Spirit of Little Things – the official alcohol sponsor of the 2024 Oasis Ball – to produce a bespoke gin named ‘The Spirit of Oasis’ to ensure the $150,000 target is reached.
Michelle Testa, client partner at Carat and 2024 Chairperson, said: “We are so proud of the efforts of WA’s advertising industry to come together to support our efforts to raise funds for WA’s disadvantaged young people. I really challenge our media partners, creative, and media agencies around Australia to help us get to our target by jumping online and purchasing a bottle of Spirit of Oasis.
“It’s an easy way to make real change in the world and makes a heartfelt addition to the office bar cart, the perfect staff reward, end-of-financial drink for the office, client gift or birthday present for friends and family. Of course, drink responsibly and donate in any way you can.”
The Signature gin is a nod to London Dry style gin with a delicate touch that comes from being hand-crafted and enjoyed G&T, in a cocktail, or straight up.
As the official alcohol sponsor of Oasis Ball, Spirit of Little Things will also mix two bespoke cocktails available to purchase on the night for a donation of $5.
Josh Krueger, Spirit of Little Things co-founder, said: “We are delighted to be producing this unique and limited release premium gin for such a great industry initiative that will raise important funds to support young people between who are marginalised and disadvantaged.
“When Michelle Testa approached me there was no hesitation to bring this initiative to life! We are proud to be part of this event knowing your G&T enjoyment will be helping people in need, so don’t miss out on this exclusive g limited release gin.“
The Oasis Ball, now in its 27th year, will be held on Friday 17th May at Crown Towers and features the Campaign Brief WA Awards amongst entertainment, experiences and many more ways for more than 900 guests to contribute towards the Oasis Committee’s fundraising goal of $150,000.
