Steph Eames Giving Fund
Your generosity shapes the Lifely community.
Through workplace giving, Lifely staff support the purchase of one-off and essential items that make a positive difference in the lives of our participants and empower them to overcome challenges and achieve their goals.
Lifely staff choose to make donations to the giving fund through fortnightly post-tax payroll deductions. Lifely is an Item 1 Deductible Gift Recipient, and donations of $2 or greater are tax-deductible.
Community members can also donate to the fund in memory of our friend and colleague, Steph Eames, either online or by contacting us directly.
Remembering Steph Eames
With great sadness, we mourned the passing of our colleague Steph Eames in March 2022.
Steph was a valued member of our team from 2017 until her passing. Steph’s kindness and generosity were well-known. She exemplified life, laughter, and an irrepressible belief in seeing the best in everyone.
Steph’s passing was a blow to our community, especially the participants and families she supported diligently during her career.
With the blessing of Steph’s family, we have established the Steph Eames Giving Fund to continue her legacy of compassion.
What can the giving fund assist with?
The fund was established to support Lifely participants and families by purchasing one-off and essential items and services that will make a positive difference in lives or assist in challenging circumstances. Examples may include:
- Essential items
- Emergency purchases or services
- School and work supplies
- Sporting equipment
- Gifts for milestones, celebrations or participants without family
- Camp fees
- Minor home modifications or assistive technology
Lifely staff will identify participants and families who may benefit from support during their work.
The giving fund committee will review all nominations for support for appropriateness in accordance with the procedure and funds available.
