What is it?
The One Day At A Time Gala is Shine Bright Foundations annual awareness event. We raise awareness for vital community resources to ensure Men, Women, and Children of Fraser Coast affected by Domestic and Family Violence and mental health are able to access crucial support and services.
We have been hosting this event for 3 consecutive years, supporting Shine Bright Foundation in conjunction with Play and Beyond – Therapy 4 Kids, The Shine Bright Sanctuary and Mens & Youth Hub via Shine Bright Mental Health, Small Steps 4 Hannah, and the HALT program.
2026 is going to be bigger and better than all the years before. Focusing on Men’s Mental Health and accountability in domestic and family violence prevention and promoting wellbeing throughout the Wide Bay Region.
This unique event is bringing together the Wide Bay community with an experience of country, campfires, and high-profile keynote speakers.
Keynote Speaker - Darius Boyd
We are beyond proud to announce that Darius Boyd will be joining us as the Major Keynote Speaker for the One Day at a Time Gala 2026 event!
A Queensland legend with more than 380 top-level games, a State of Origin and Kangaroos representative, and one of Australia’s most respected voices in mental health advocacy, Darius brings a story of resilience, vulnerability, leadership, and real-world change.
After openly sharing his own journey through mental illness and recovery, Darius has become a powerful advocate for early intervention, emotional wellbeing, and breaking the stigma for men seeking support. His keynote will be raw, honest, courageous — and absolutely unforgettable.
PLUS… a special Meet & Greet opportunity will be happening on the day!
