LightnUp Inc. collaborates with people from all walks of life, to provide heart-warming events and workshops in Lismore and across Australia.

​

In 2024 the Lismore Lantern Parade celebrated 30 years of lighting the hearts of our community.

It has been a crazy roller-coaster over the last few years, but, we are still here, shining as bright as ever. We were flooded in 2017 before COVID took its toll after the 2019 Bushfires.

In 2020 LightnUp  moved to our new building - then came the Great Floods of '22.

​

On February 28 2022, we experienced the biggest flood Lismore has ever seen...... 

with not one, but TWO floods within a month!

​

The lantern workshop, situated on a hill and thought to be quite safe, was inundated and we lost so much.

Like so many over two years on we were still getting back on our feet, remaking lanterns, fixing the building and continuing to bring light to our community.

Three years later, in 2025 along came Tropical Cyclone Alfred!

We lifted everything we could and then put it ALL back again, feeling very relieved.

And knew we could do it all very efficiently. 

We absolutely missed the bullet then but now we are way behind in our Lantern Parade preparations!  

 

We were recently approved as a Charitable organisation with Gift Deductible Status, so now when you donate to LightnUp Inc for the Lantern Parade your donation is tax deductible. 

 

Donate through GIVE NOW and you will receive a tax receipt.

So, every bit of help would be gratefully received.

Thanks in advance for your generous contribution.
