Thrive Teach Nurture Grow Inc.
Thrive Teach Nurture Grow Inc. is a registered charity that works to specifically support students living and learning with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other learning differences. Funding support for our Key Programs means that we can help as many children, youth, families, and educators as possible. We can make these critical services more accessible and affordable and create a hub of support on the Coast. At present, there is no Government Funding (including NDIS) for those with learning differences, such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Therefore your donation is so truly appreciated.

Choir of Hard Knocks 'Christmas Appeal'
The lockdown in Victoria due to the pandemic has been one enormous hard knock to the arts community. In spite of this, the Choir of Hard Knocks is still standing strong! We have learned new tricks, supported each other, adapted to new technology and done our best to deal with the challenges of isolation. We have absorbed the 'hard knocks' as best we can throughout 2020 and managed to keep the Choir of Hard Knocks connected through weekly online rehearsals and social catch-ups! The reality is that the Choir of Hard Knocks relies heavily on performances, donations and merchandise sales to continue supporting the most vulnerable members in our community. Without any performances on the horizon, we will struggle to keep the Choir of Hard Knocks singing, despite the best efforts of our dedicated music directors, staff, volunteers and committee. Thank you for your donation to our Christmas Appeal bringing a little joy to our choir members and comfort knowing they can carry on singing!
