AVN reinstated as a charity as of today!

[Guest guest]

To everyone who believed in us:Well, after a very, very long battle, the AVN has finally had its authority to fundraise reinstated. The Office of Liquor Gaming and Racing (OLGR) has admitted that the ONLY reason why our fundraising authority was revoked was because of the warning issued by the HCCC. As you probably remember, we won our appeal against the HCCC due to the fact that both their investigation and the public warning they issued were illegal. Therefore, the revocation of our authority to fundraise was not correct and the OLGR have admitted as much and reinstated our fundraising authority.I am leaving for a seminar on the Sunshine Coast very early tomorrow morning but over the next few days I will:1- change all subscribers to members2- update the website to reflect these changes (members get a 10% discount on purchases in our online store)3- change the website to get rid of the subscription options and leave membership as the only option available (members get our magazine, Living Wisdom, as do subscribers).I want to thank EVERYONE who has supported and believed in us over this difficult time. After our win in the Supreme Court, I started to believe that justice was actually possible in Australia. Today, it was proven!If you would like to become a member of the AVN, please click on the following links (ignore the warnings on these pages, they are no longer valid - thank goodness!)Standard membership - http://avn.org.au/subscribe/subscribe-current-avn-members/Professional membership - http://avn.org.au/subscribe/professional-membership-renewals/And if you would like to donate to support our vital work, you may now do so!
