We are thrilled to announce that TFN Live Brisbane is taking place on Thursday 26 May. Hosted by Deloitte, this special live crowdfunding event will spotlight the life-changing work of grassroots non-profits and social enterprises running innovative programs to support Queenslanders in need.
Join us in person to hear incredible stories from three remarkable organisations: 4 Voices Global; Dig In; and Emerge Toowoomba. Together, these fantastic organisations connect at-risk women and girls with a community of support; provide wholesome, homemade meals for people experiencing homelessness or disadvantage; and empower young people to reach their full potential.
A big thank you to our matched funding partner Morgans Foundation, and event supporters Deloitte, Clayton Utz and the Queensland Community Foundation.
We’d love you to join us for this uplifting evening of laughter, fun, storytelling and generosity.
All guests are asked to be vaccinated and to comply with current COVID-19 guidelines. Arrival instructions will be provided in advance.
