Leanne and Richelle were lucky enough to attend the 5 ^th Mirabel Ladies Lunch on Friday afternoon.

Mirabel is one of our founding partner charities. We proudly donate a percentage of our fee to Mirabel. To this day we have donated over $100,000 to the foundation and almost 180 tutors have been provided since we partnered 3 years ago.

Mirabel assists children who have been orphaned or abandoned due to parental illicit drug use and who are now in the care of extended family.

Mirabel supports children aged 0-17 years and works at restoring a child’s sense of self-worth, belonging and hope for the future in order for them to reach their full potential as young adults.

Mirabel believes that investing in children is the most compassionate and economic investment they can make.

Mirabel provides advocacy, referral, research, practical and emotional assistance to the children and their kinship carers.

The Mirabel Ladies Lunch is an annual event and is a fantastic day for women to unite for an incredible cause.

About 400 women attended the lunch on Friday afternoon, all chipping in to purchase raffle tickets and bidding in an online auction with all proceeds going towards Mirabel. The goal was to raise a quarter of a million dollars.

One of the highlights of the lunch was hearing Dylan’s story, a former Mirabel child. His parents struggled with drug addiction before he was born; his grandparents were granted custody and he has not seen his biological parents since he was 6 years old. Mirabel supported Dylan since he was 8, he is now 22 years old and a professional dancer. Dylan’s story touched the whole room and really put into perspective of why we were all there.

Thank you so much to the Mirabel Foundation for such an amazing event. We are so honoured to have attended to support such a great cause.
