We are excited to hear news that we have been successful in receiving a 2023 CommBank Staff Foundation Community Grant. Thank you to the staff at CommBank who participate in Workplace Giving — this grant wouldn't be possible without you!

This $10,000 grant will help fund the Live4Life Crew Camp, coming up in September this year! Crew Camp is an amazing experience for young people to learn about mental health and connect with other Live4Life Crews from across rural and regional communities. Crew Camp helps build brighter futures in the community by developing young people’s confidence as Mental Health Ambassadors and reduces mental health stigma through conversations and connections.

Our 2022 Crew Camp was a huge success, offering the chance for young people to meet new friends, learn new skills and build on their mental health knowledge. As one Crew member commented: “I think this is the best experience I had this year. I almost feel like a completely different person. I was so happy sometimes that I wanted to cry. I am truly grateful that I, and other young people, have this chance because it will and has changed lives.“
