FLINDERS Fundraiser

DRIVE 4 LIFE is a non-profit organisation set up by a group of long-term four-wheel drivers, with the objective to raise funds for charitable organisations that don’t have a high profile and therefore have difficulty raising enough funds to achieve their annual objectives.

The main beneficiary over the past few years has been Northcott Disability Services, which was established as ‘The New South Wales Society for Crippled Children’ in 1929 by the Rotary Club of Sydney in response to the growing number of children left with the effects of illnesses such as polio and tuberculosis. Prior to this year’s second event, funds raised to date totalled $813,500. Each participating vehicle pays $1000 to join the trip, with all funds going directly to Northcott.

No event like this could run without the support of sponsors and, since its inception, Drive 4 Life has been supported by 4X4 Australia magazine,ARB and IGA.
