Bringing Australians Together: Help Fight Loneliness and Isolation
Loneliness and social isolation affect many lives in Australia. Individuals, regardless of age, are increasingly finding themselves alone and the impact on mental health and overall well-being is significant. Life Dance Community is on a mission to make a difference and we invite you to join us in this cause.
Why Your Donation Matters
Loneliness and social isolation are more than just emotional challenges; they pose serious health risks. Research shows that they can be as detrimental as smoking, alcohol, obesity, lack of exercise and an unhealthy diet. In fact, these issues are now recognised as a national concern by the US Surgeon General and yet they are not getting the attention they deserve in Australia.
Our Vision for a Happier Society
Life Dance Community is dedicated to creating a happier, healthier, and more connected Australian society. Our goal is to create groups where permanent friendships can blossom and flourish. We use a unique dance methodology (Biodanza) that fosters genuine human connections, transcending age, background, and differences.
How You Can Make a Difference
You don't need to be a large corporation or foundation to have a significant impact. Your small-scale donation can help us bring joy and social connection to the lives of those affected by loneliness and social isolation. Here's why:
- Donate Australia: you will have a tangible, lasting impact on the lives of those in our society who are struggling
- Charities Near Me: we're a local charity organisation dedicated to creating positive change in our community. Your support will help us explore fresh, effective strategies
- NGO in Australia: we operate as a non-governmental organisation, working tirelessly to combat loneliness. Your contribution will enable us to expand our programs and reach more individuals
- Sponsorship Opportunities: explore sponsorship options that align with your values and goals.
Join Us in Creating Change
By becoming a donor to Life Dance Community, you'll be contributing to an organisation that is passionate about fostering long-term sustainability, scalability, best practices, and continuous improvement. Your support helps us in our quest to combat loneliness and social isolation in Australia.
Together, we can bring joy and connection to those who need it most. Join us in making a difference. Donate now and be a part of the change. Your compassion and your contribution, no matter the size, are invaluable. Let's build a stronger and more connected community together.
Right now, we are looking for a total of $5,000 to cover insurance, printing, banners, dance facilitator session fees, venue hire, promotion to those who can benefit, incidental expenses and safety net to support starting in Jan-Feb 24. Other than the proposed session fees, we are not currently paying salaries or wages, all work is done voluntarily.

We are a registered charity, however donations are not tax deductible for individuals and may not be possible for some philanthropic organisations as we do not have DGR status with the Australian Taxation Office. If this is an issue for you, may we make a gentle suggestion? Why not give a small donation so that the tax deduction is not important to you? — we would be very grateful.
We are currently able to accept personal donations from residents of New South Wales and Victoria only.
If you have any questions or ideas, please contact us.
Thank you for your support.
