In partnership with Hillsong Conference, Compassion Australia created an immersive experience to bring the story of Anjoe, an alumni sponsor child from the Philippines, to life. Using personal photographs, keepsakes and interactive displays, the experience connected his journey with Compassion’s mission, encouraging audiences to engage with Child Sponsorship and our other programs.

As Lead Designer, I collaborated with the creative team to shape the overarching concept and stage moment, leading the foyer experience from concept through to production. I brought Anjoe’s story into the physical space through a feature gallery wall, interactive Message of Hope wall and custom branded displays, alongside stage and presentation screen design. With future events in mind, I designed key elements to be reused and adapted for future partnerships. I also managed production planning, material sourcing and supplier coordination, balancing the creative vision with practical and budget considerations.
