Saturday 8 January 2005 — MELBOURNE

The three commercial networks join forces to present Australia Unites: Reach Out To Asia, a telethon to raise funds for the World Vision tsunami relief appeal, after a catastrophic tsunami hit southern Asia, claiming hundreds and thousands of lives and displacing millions.

As well as being broadcast across the Seven, Nine and Ten networks, Australia Unites was also relayed via ABC’s Australia Network, which broadcast to some of the countries affected by the disaster.
