Your impact has been doubled!
Earlier this year we announced the LLL $75k Matching Appeal in support of the great work of our Platinum Partners Australian Lutheran World Service (ALWS), with LLL to match donations dollar-for-dollar up to $75,000.
We're thrilled to share that the target was reached over a month before the deadline, thanks to you, our valued customers.
ALWS began the year with a bold goal to celebrate their 75th anniversary by supporting 75,000 children in need with the essentials for a happy, healthy life - food, school and safety.
Thanks to your generosity in support of ALWS fundraising efforts, such as the LLL $75k Matching Appeal, that ambitious 12-month goal of supporting 75,000 children in some of the world's most impoverished countries was achieved by 16 June.

Powerful partnership
ALWS Executive Director Michael Stolz praised the impact of our Platinum Partnership, which provides the support of a five-year sponsorship agreement, in the latest edition of The Lutheran magazine.
"The LLL Platinum Partnership with ALWS is so powerful," Michael said.
"It enables ALWS to do things we could not do on our own."

Active support
In addition to the $75k Matching Appeal, we proudly support ALWS Ambassador Boot Camps for teachers from Lutheran schools and Walk My Way fundraising events.
This support isn't just financial, with LLL team members actively involved in our Partnership.
"They step out in the ALWS Walk My Ways, receive the same training as teachers do when they attend ALWS Ambassador Boot Camp and volunteer their own time to offer their expertise and energy for ALWS," LLL CEO Ross Smith said.
"This exemplifies LLL's commitment to empowering steps of faith.
"It demonstrates the incredible power of people united in faith, working together towards a common purpose.
"We are proud to support the vital work of ALWS."
Our Platinum Partnership with ALWS is just one example of the positive impact your investment with LLL has in communities through our shared missional partnership.
