The power of community – LLF
This is the power of progress. The power of community. The power of science driven by compassion.
Every child. Every chance.
Live Life Foundation is a registered charity driven by one powerful belief: that children diagnosed with neurological disorders – such as spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and other neurological conditions — deserve every chance to live a full and vibrant life.
In partnership with The Royal Children’s Hospital, we’re on a mission to build Australia’s first dedicated gene therapy ward. Imagine a space where expert teams deliver advanced therapies for children with conditions once thought untreatable. Together, we’re changing the future of paediatric care.
Paediatric neurologist, Professor Andrew Kornberg, is flying solo across Australia to raise $4.5 million for the first gene therapy ward. Fly for the Kids is more than a journey. It’s a shared mission of hope. Donate, fundraise, or spread the word, and help bring life-changing care to the children who need it most.
After 31 days in the air, over 50 flying hours and 27,000 kilometres travelled, Dr Andrew Kornberg is preparing to land. Along the way, he’s visited RCH patients across Australia, spreading hope and raising awareness for sick kids.

An estimated 41,000 Australians live with one or more neuromuscular conditions.
Muscle and nerve disorders affect at least one in 1,000 children in Australia.
Left untreated, spinal muscular atrophy type one is the number one genetic cause of death in babies under the age of two.
Your tax-deductible donation brings life-changing gene therapy to children with rare neurological conditions. While government support helps lay the foundation, it’s your generosity that ensures no child misses out on the care they urgently need.
The need is real, the impact is immediate — your support matters now more than ever.
