Lutheran Care threw a party with a purpose at South Australia's iconic Adelaide Oval in November to raise vital funds for its Emergency Relief program that provides help for families in need.
LLL was the major sponsor of the Lutheran Care Gala Dinner, which was attended by around 600 guests, with the key fundraising event generating almost $200,000 for the program.
Those funds enable Lutheran Care to continue supporting families and individuals in crisis with critical food relief, bedding, clothing, assistance accessing healthcare and many more vital services.
Media personality Rebecca Morse led attendees through a fun program of live music, the creation of a live artwork by surreal artist Andrew Baines, an auction and a three-course dinner.
Lutheran Care CEO Rohan Feegrade was grateful to LLL for its support of the event and thanked all sponsors and guests for being part of the special night that contributed to a great cause.
"With increasingly challenging financial conditions being placed on businesses, families and individuals, we understand the significant pressures many of our partners are feeling right now," Rohan said.
"Their unwavering support is a testament to their commitment to helping families and our communities who are in distress.
"The overwhelming love and support in the room on the night will continue to provide much inspiration for the work we do in extremely challenging times.
"Thank you to all of our generous guests who came out to support Lutheran Care, but more importantly for uniting with us to help the most vulnerable individuals, families and communities that we serve."
LLL Chief Relationship Officer Scott Ross was on hand to introduce LLL's important missional work to the audience.
"The relationship with Lutheran entities, such as Lutheran Care, is so important to our missional intent," Scott said.
"We invite everyone to join LLL in support of Lutheran Care."
