Thank you 🙏🏽 Each and everyone for your support of @thelilycalvertfund this year. There are too many of you to name but without you, we could not do it.
Despite the maddness of 2020 we have launched two major programs raised thousands of dollars and helped bring a little light into the lives of so many families across Australia.
We have raised much awareness because of so many of you - who have generously shared our story and our cause via your amazing reach and channels. Thank you 🙏🏽

‘Music can change the world’
Music. It can’t cure illness, but it can change the world. Through sparking joy, love, interaction and even pain relief. Music therapy changed Lily’s short little life. Music gave Lily so much joy, ways to communicate with her and memories we carry for a lifetime without her. Today, together with with @tiny_tones musical instruments we are thrilled to launch The Lily Calvert Music Therapy Kits in partnership with the @thelilycalvertfund.
The program aims to spark joy from music and encourage families to explore music therapy through donating musical care kits to children who are in a palliative care program all across Australia. The kits will be proudly donated by @tiny_tones They include a selection of Lily’s favourite music therapy instruments and songs (Swipe to see of Lily enjoying her music therapy). The kits consist of a range of quality and sustainable wooden percussion instruments that are appropriate for young children of all abilities and selected to be useful in music therapy settings for ages 0-6.
From TODAY, $5 from every sale will go towards these musical care kits (Swipe to see an example). So YOU too can enjoy the warm feeling that you are helping bring some joy to families who are going through the unimaginable. Or head over to @thelilycalvertfund and donate through the link in bio. @tiny_tones have generously given us a discount code too Lily10 for a discount when purchasing. Thank you for your support as always.
So very excited to announce our next project that has been many months in the planning! Stay tuned. Coming soon 💓💖
We realised that we just had to live in the moment and there was a beautiful simplicity to it. ⭐️✨
