Life Education is an Australian non-profit organisation whose primary objective is raising funds to help Australian children in making healthy lifestyle choices.[1] It was founded by the Reverend Ted Noffs in 1979 above the Wayside Chapel.[2]

Their mascot is a giraffe named Healthy Harold who empowers and teaches children to be healthy.

Their regular giving program is called "Hands-Up Now!"[3]

One of their recent high-profile promotions was "Ocsober", aimed at encouraging people to say "no" to alcohol for the month of October.[4]
