Personal Life
Tredrea donated the proceeds of the 2004 3AW Player of the Year award to the Women's and Children's Hospital. The $10,000 worth of Magnavox fridges, televisions, sound systems and microwaves were distributed to children's therapy rooms and the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit.
"One of my good friends' mums works at the Children's, and I'd heard a lot of kids that are getting chemotherapy haven't even got a TV to watch," Tredrea said. "Those guys are doing it a lot tougher than I am, and it would be nice if those kids could have a little bit of happiness," the former Port Adelaide captain then added.

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:
“He hadn’t known me fifteen minutes, and yet he was ... ready to talk ... I was still to learn that Munshin, like many people from the capital, could talk openly about his personal life while remaining a dream of espionage in his business operations.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“Wilson adventured for the whole of the human race. Not as a servant, but as a champion. So pure was this motive, so unflecked with anything that his worst enemies could find, except the mildest and most excusable, a personal vanity, practically the minimum to be human, that in a sense his adventure is that of humanity itself. In Wilson, the whole of mankind breaks camp, sets out from home and wrestles with the universe and its gods.”
—William Bolitho (1890–1930)
“Death or life or life or death
Death is life and life is death
I gotta use words when I talk to you
But if you understand or if you dont
That’s nothing to me and nothing to you
We all gotta do what we gotta do”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
