Goal
Smiles and laughter are some of the best sounds and sights to see. Especially when you know that families are experiencing tough times.
Last year, Nik ran a personal best in the Melbourne Virtual Marathon. It was the picture of smiles and laughter he had in mind as he crossed the finish line. In 2021, he's hoping to run the Melbourne Marathon for the same reason. But this time, the real Melbourne Marathon.
You can help. Can you picture the emotional toll on families when they're struggling with situations often beyond their control? Coming to mainly music or mainly play creates a place of learning together, away from the issues of life. It's a place of laughter and encouragement.
Children caught up in these environments become hesitant and anxious, often unable to learn and gain educational skills. Interestingly, that's one thing their parents notice - "My child is learning. My child seems more relaxed. I notice positive differences in my child. I love being with my child in your sessions."
Could you put smiles on the faces of families and laughter in the air by backing Nik?
Just $12 is all it takes for a family to enjoy a session provided by a mainly music Facilitator.
Will you participate from your couch while Nik does the hard work of training and running to bring smiles and laughter into the lives of families experiencing difficulty?
