The creators of the beloved 'Toy Story' films re-open the toy box and bring moviegoers back to the delightful world of our favourite gang of toy characters in TOY STORY 3. As Andy prepares to depart for college, Buzz, Woody and the rest of his loyal toys are troubled about their uncertain future. Directed by Lee Unkrich (co-director of 'Toy Story 2' and 'Finding Nemo'), TOY STORY 3 is a comical new adventure in Disney Digital 3D that lands the toys in a room full untamed tots who can't wait to get their sticky little fingers on these 'new' toys. It's pandemonium as they try to stay together, ensuring no toy gets left behind. Meanwhile, Barbie comes face to plastic face with Ken (yes, that Ken). Pixar veteran Darla K. Anderson ("Cars," "Monsters, Inc.") produces, while Michael Arndt, Academy Award - winning screenwriter of 'Little Miss Sunshine' brings his unique talents and comedic sensibilities.

Who we Help
We all fall accustomed to thinking our kids will never get sick, but for many local families their reality is a lot different. Each year thousands of kids are admitted to hospital, some with minor health issues and others with major life threatening conditions. It's every parent's nightmare to have their child get sick, imagine this nightmare doubled by the horrible reality that your local hospital doesn't have the suitable equipment to help your child get better. With this in mind, Gold Fm introduced the Give Me 5 For Kid's Appeal- with the sole purpose of raising money for the Gold Coast and Tweed Head's Hospitals' children's wards.
In the past 13 years with the help of the community, Gold FM has raised over 1.1 million dollars, ensuring our kids receive the best possible care and equipment available. Without this support from the community this appeal would not be as successful.
Last year we raised over $80,000 and were able to buy a Neo Natal Resuscitation Trolley, Orthopedic beds, a Portable Nitrous Oxide Machine and a Pediatric exercise bike for disabled children. This year we?re aiming even higher!! For this appeal to be successful we need your help.
This year the Gold Coast hospitals are hoping to purchase these items from the money raised by Give Me 5 For Kids:
WISH LIST 2010
Isolette Incubator Trolley $ 25,000
Phototherapy Unit (Jaundice monitors) x 2 $ 12,000 each
Oxygen Monitors (Special Care & Paediatrics)Hand held x 2 $ 2,000 each
