During an intense and dangerous 3 week tour of the Afghanistan and Iraq warzones , Tania`s life was changed. Her eyes were opened when she travelled with, and lived the life of the military, wearing bullet proof vest, helmut and protective clothing, and flying on Hercules Air Force planes from base to base while dodging gunfire and rocket attacks.
Tania was amazed to see the diversity of duties the Australian Defence Forces perform in areas of conflict, but the part that touched her heart the most was the work done towards improving infrastructure and services for the local people. This includes rebuilding the villages, constructing water tanks and teaching the local teenage men a trade to help themselves, and so they can continue to teach others around them.
Little did I realize how much that trip to the Middle East would touch my heart so intensely and change my life, says Tania, my future direction and goals my have been changed as a result
Having seen first hand, her greatest concern was for the damage and trauma impacting the children of war. Having heard many tragic stories in the short time she was there, she returned home determined to help those children who deserve a chance at a future.
She has now embarked on a campaign to raise funds and awareness so she can contribute to the rebuilding of the lives, morale and homes of those innocent people in conflict zones, especially the children .
I feel so passionate about this having seen it first hand on my Middle East trip that I have co-founded my own charity, Peace for the Children, Tania announced recently. This will be an ongoing project to help the innocent victims of war.
Money raised will go towards hospitals, medical supplies, the rebuilding of schools and infrastructure in areas where its most needed.
Fundraising efforts have already began with a considerable amount raised at Tania`s first event, the highly successful talk of the town Jazz & Soul Cocktail Night on the Gold Coast. Further events and opportunities are soon to follow.

GRANT HILTON
 Successful business man Grant Hilton put his first company together in Adverstising at the age of 24. This was an industry he knew well and excelled at having started from the bottom and working his way up to manager status at a very young age of 18. This was an admirable achievement and a far cry from the years before where 17 years old Grant moved away from home and found himself living on the streets fending for himself with nothing.
Highly successful, financially secure and a self made millionaire at 25, Grant diversed his business interests in Advertising to a career in Marketing. After succeeding in that area he then took a well earned break for a year at 29.
Upon returning to the business world, Grant set his sights on building a Developing Company which he managed for 3 years. It was at this time Grant realised his hard work and dedication had reaped rewards beyond his wildest dreams, he was financially free to do what ever he chose. Living the dream of a wealthy young man at the age of 31, with the lifestyle, trimmings and material things many people could only dream of. Unfulfilled with this free lifestyle Grant went in search of answers to life and happiness that money and material items cant provide. During this time a 3 year spiritual journey began for Grant, he took a 3 year break and began to discover that everything he thought made him happy at no depth to the person he really was, and wanted to be. At 34 a life changing experience happened.
Inner peace and happiniess were missing from his life until he attended Vipassane, a 10 day silent retreat.
After these 10 days, alone with his thoughts, an 'awakening' occurred for Grant. Finally true happiness was found and a feeling of 'letting go' was present. Expensive material possessions, prestigous Gold Coast homes, sports cars and his luxury boat were a thing of the past and sold to start a new more meaningful life.
He moved to the beautiful rainfoirest area at the base of Mt Warning to begin a new life. Utilising his business background Grant began building a retreat where others caught up in the 'high flying corporate world' could also have the chance to find true inner happiness like he did. A place where others could find what was truly important to them each as an individual.
It was something that Grants wife, Naomi, helped and encouraged him to go in search of...... true inner peace. Grant knew very well the pressures that can mainifest and build up inside a person from stress and a continous busy mind. Like a physically overexerted body, a mind too needs time to rest.
Travelling the world financially free enabled Grant the privliege of studying with many great Spiritual Masters.
Upon receiving a full DA Approval he began building a muti-million dollar executive retreat in the stunning landscaped forests of UKI, NSW, just 40 minutes drive from the Gold Coast towards Bryon Bay. The 'Universal Peace Retreat & Spa' has been in full operation for a year now. The retreat will also be a place for teaching people how to find their own 'inner peace' through Vipassana Meditation, BreathworkMastery and Yoga.
Further details about The Universal peace Spa & Retreat and all it has to offer can be found at www.upc.com.au.
Deciding to move forward with his new purpose in life, helping the world become a better place, Grant teamed up with Actress and Tv Personality, Tania Zaetta. The duo found a mutual passion to help raise awareness and much needed funds for the children who have been innocent victims of war.
The belief being, 'if we dont take care of our current environment and nurture and provide for the children that are already in it, there will be nothing left for future generations to come.
The purpose of the Retreat is to help people take time out to realize the important things in life before it is too late. If you are suffering from any of the following; anger, depression, constantly wanting more but never being satisfied in the end, or are suffering from any sort of addiction or illness then this place is for you.
Already seeking out his spiritual path Grant continued the search for inner answers, he continued his Vipassana meditation as taught by S.N.Goenka daily to keep his mind focused.
Grant also branched out and studied and completed his Certificate IV practitioner in Breathwork Mastery with a yogi swami by the name of Alakh Analda. Level 1 to 8 - a diploma course. The only accredited course in its field in Australia.
In search of the amazing teachers of wisdom, Grant found and studied with the writer of 'The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying', Sogyal Rinpoche.
Having spent intensive time with Sogyal Rinpoche the teachings were nothing short of enlightening. Following his visions, his lifes purpose has been revealed to him. The spiritual retreat for meditation, spiritual wisdom teachings, and yoga for the benefit of all beings. 'The Universal Peace Retreat.'
Finding out that Sogyal Rinpoche and the Dalai Lama were friends, Grant went for a journey to India to the New Tibet where the Dalai Lama and monks are in exile.
Here at the Dalai Lama's house/ temple, in a small place called McLeod Gang in NTH India, he took part in ceremonies and classes at the Dalai Lamas home. Much time was also speant wandering through the Himalayas and in meditation.
