Dear Life Changing Supporter,

With the generous support of NIVEA, we are very excited to have raised almost $25K from our Sex and the City 2 movie night at the Ritz Cinema Randwick.  I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all 1400 participants who joined us on the pink carpet to raise the necessary funds for The SISTER2sister Program.  This event launched the "Celebrating Sisterhood" series, so do keep an eye out for our upcoming events.
 
It's now that time of year again to start training for the City 2Surf. So whether you are keen to beat your time from last year or you are participating for the first time, we welcome you to join our NIVEA sister team.

The next "Celebrating Sisterhood" event is: Life Changing Experiences Foundation Ambassadors lunch proudly supported by NIVEA. This lunchtime event will celebrate sisterhood, acknowledging the wonderful Life Changing ambassadors, and present the inaugural NIVEA SISTER2sister Community Achievement Awards, acknowledging those who have gone over and beyond the call of duty to make a positive difference in the Australian community. Award winners will be notified in the next couple of weeks.
 
Our Little Sisters are doing really well. Along with their Big Sisters, they've danced, trapezed, and learnt valuable skills for dealing with conflict resolution, bullying, healthy relationships and intimacy. We look forward to seeing them next month for our Cooking Extravaganza and Social Etiquette workshop.
 
Last month we farewelled Lyndal Keith, our National Program Manager who has moved into a role in nursing. Before her position with LCEF, Lyndal was a dedicated and valued Big Sister and Team Leader for many years and we are grateful for her long term commitment to the Foundation. Missed by all, we wish her well in her endeavours.
 
Finally, we thank you for your continued support.


 
Kind regards,


Jessica Brown

Meet Our Sisters

Big Sister, Jodie and Little Sister, Amelia share with us their journey together so far…

My journey with Amelia has only just begun and already we have both learnt so much and achieved so much together. On our first day at Bootcamp, I don't think you could see who was more nervous, her or me! We were both nervous and had the same thoughts running through our heads, "I hope she likes me!"
