The Australian Charities and Not for Profits Commission’s (ACNC) Charity Tick is here, and you’ll be seeing it more as we add it to our communications. The ACNC has created this tick to help the public instantly identify a registered charity, and encourage them to visit the ACNC’s Charity Register listing. It reflects the ACNC’s commitment to being a contemporary, friendly and engaging organisation, with the the bold-coloured ribbons intended to convey support, pride, spirit and unity.

Thanks to all those who came and celebrated our wonderful L4Life community at our High Society Ball on Friday, 25 November 2016. It was a very special night and many noted a lot of love in the room. The stage was set for our Ball theme with an exquisite floral display and nostalgic scene in the foyer reminiscent of the 1950’s silver screen with the movie icons themselves, Grace Kelly, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra and Celeste Holm there to greet the guests!

Every year is busy, and this one was no exception. We have arrived at a particularly exciting phase where we are established enough to expand our reach beyond early intervention services to working with school-aged children with autism at all grade levels and into rural Victoria.

On 24th July 2016, 30 generous and determined individuals participated in Run Melbourne 2016 as part of Team L4Life to support the Learning for Life Autism Centre.

Despite a major rain storm, 200 people attended L4Life’s 8th Annual Kwiz for Kidz Trivia Night on April 21st at the Richmond Football Club. The trio of Tom Gleisner, Sam Pang and Mick Molloy lead fast-paced and often hilarious rounds of trivia questions, including a table-by-table ‘sing the next line’ of a song challenge, to raise much-needed $22,500 for a great cause. See our picture gallery and full report.
