Baker McKenzie<br />
Partner with Tuberous<br />
Sclerosis Australia<br />
Tuberous Sclerosis Australia (TSA) is delighted to announce<br />
our new partnership with global law firm Baker McKenzie.<br />
After a competitive internal selection process, TSA was<br />
selected as one of three national charities Baker McKenzie will<br />
work with for the next three years. Baker McKenzie will support<br />
TSA by offering ‘in kind’ support and volunteers for TSA events<br />
such as awareness and fundraising events and involvement in<br />
TSC Hero events.<br />
This is a terrific opportunity for TSA to raise awareness and funds<br />
to improve the lives of Australians living with the challenges of TSC.<br />
TSA wishes to thank Mia from Melbourne for nominating<br />
us for this partnership opportunity. Mia is a lawyer at the<br />
firm and her daughter, who is two years old, was recently<br />
diagnosed with TSC. Mia says: “I have been in regular<br />
contact with TSA since my daughter’s TSC diagnosis and the<br />
information and support I have received has been invaluable<br />
during a difficult time. I am thrilled the firm I work for has<br />
chosen to support this small but dynamic organisation and I<br />
know we can make a great difference by contributing even in a<br />
minor way. I’ve seen how desperately in need of assistance TSA<br />
is and I look forward to this partnership having a positive impact<br />
on families and their communities affected by TSC.”<br />
We’d like to thank Baker McKenzie for choosing to partner<br />
with TSA and look forward to working together to improve the<br />
lives of individuals living with TSC.<br />
If your<br />
workplace, small<br />
or large, supports<br />
charities please talk to<br />
them about TSA’s work.<br />
The TSA team is ready to put<br />
forward our case for support<br />
and ideas for how they can<br />
get involved. You could<br />
be the inspiration they<br />
need to choose us.<br />
