Last Friday our CEO Mel attended a luncheon for Helping Hoops, an independent charity running free basketball programs!
Mel was able to meet some of the other charities that Pressroom Philanthropy supports.
All in all, Mel came back to tell us that it was a great day in great company, and to be able to hear about other charities out there and a good opportunity to connect and network.
And that the food was great too!
Different Journeys would like to acknowledge the traditional owners of the different lands on which we meet today. We respect all Aboriginal Elders past and present We aim to collaborate with our Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander friends in the autistic community to connect, empower and support each other and exchange isolation, prejudice and ignorance with connections, hope and community. We acknowledge that the connection to autism and lived experience is our common ground. We acknowledge, respect and maintain that our custodians have cultivated these lands and we continue to learn together.
