In 2023 and 2024 Life Education Trust Wellington City held a charity luncheon to raise funds to support our work with Wellington tamariki and schools, and to purchase a ramp for our mobile classroom.
This wonderful event includes guest speakers, food and drinks, music, a charity auction and lots of laughter.
We are incredibly grateful for the support of our community, with about $40,000 raised each year which goes toward supporting the health and wellbeing education of thousands of children in the Wellington City region.
We’d like to make a special thank you to Tommy’s, who were the main sponsors of our events - without them it wouldn’t have been possible.
We’d also like to extend our thanks to Kathryn Berkett, John O’Connell, and Kyra Basabas for speaking to our attendees.
