LCA Story of the Week:
Lutheran Disability Services (LDS) Support Worker Julie Green hadn't heard of Walk My Way before the lead-up to last month’s event in SA’s Barossa Valley. But now she says the LDS team of clients and staff ‘can’t wait to do it again’. ‘They have expressed how proud they are to support Walk My Way’, she says.

Eva’s Place
There is no more critical time than an unplanned or challenging pregnancy when she needs LOVE, hope, compassion and support. Without discovering Eva’s Place, how will she know that it is possible to find solutions that will allow both her and her baby to flourish? Will you be one of 250 households to give $100???? Whether She lives in Toowoomba, Dalby or Kingaroy, your end of financial year tax-deductible investment will unlock the work of Eva’s Place so that She is supported to be her best, to love and nurture her baby. www.givenow.com.au/evasplace
